Description
We offer competitively-priced general and academic English study programmes, including a Summer English Study Programme with full social programme, an International Foundation Year which attracts over 250 students a year and tailor-made provision for specific groups such as non-native English speaking academics. The School also provides the EFL teaching on the Graduate Diploma of Management and English run by Salford Business School. The EFL teaching is provided by lecturers with considerable experience of teaching in Britain and abroad and is accredited by the British Council so you can be sure of a high quality programme. In addition to preparatory and access programmes we also offer EFL on many of our undergraduate modern foreign language programmes and a range of masters programmes in TESOL and Applied Linguistics. Academic research is another important area of activity in EFL where staff have specialist research interests in second-language acquisition and computer-assisted language learning and supervise doctoral research. The School also has a long and proud tradition of academic excellence and in the last two research assessment exercises languages and linguistics submissions scored a top grade of 5.

The International Foundation Year is a full-time, one-year programme that has been specially designed for students that want to study at a British university but have been educated in a different country. Studying in a different culture and in a different language can be difficult and the International Foundation Year provides you with tuition in English and study skills as well as subjects related to your chosen degree programme.
Provided you successfully complete the International Foundation Year, you will be awarded the University Foundation Certificate (UFdCert) and guaranteed a place on an undergraduate degree programme at the University of Salford. We offer over 100 different degree programmes in combination with the International Foundation Year, and the UFdCert is also recognised at many universities across the UK.
