Access to Science
The Access diploma to Science is a program designed to provide students with the skills, knowledge, and qualifications required to progress to a degree in science or related fields. The program is specifically aimed at individuals who do not have the traditional qualifications required for university entry, such as A-levels or equivalent.
The Access diploma to Science course covers a range of subjects, including biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. It also includes modules on research methods, critical thinking, and communication skills.
Upon completion of the Access to Science program, students can apply for a degree in science or related fields at a university. Science is a broad field that covers many disciplines, including natural sciences, life sciences, physical sciences, and social sciences. Graduates of this degree program can go on to work in a variety of settings, including government, non-governmental organisations, research institutions, education, and private sector. They may also work in industries that require knowledge of science, such as healthcare, biotechnology, environmental management, and engineering.
