BSc (Hons) Facilities Management (Foundation Entry) with Sandwich Year

University of Lancashire

Delve into the real-life experience of a facilities manager with a Foundation Entry degree course that keeps up with a fast-paced changing industry and focuses on sustainability. Foundation Entry degree courses are designed for students who have the ability to study for a degree, but don’t have the necessary formal qualifications to directly enter their chosen Honours degree programme. This degree explores how workplaces are constructed and managed and how legal and economic constraints impact on our built environment. And, in particular, it focuses on the new sustainability demands placed on a facilities manager. Facilities managers co-ordinate all the services within a building, from its construction to ICT systems, workspaces and energy efficiency. You’ll learn how the nature of a built space and the efficient control of non-core facilities affect the productivity of an organisation and the wellbeing of the people who use it.
Our sandwich degrees offer the perfect blend of academic study and practical work experience, allowing you to build confidence in the workplace and graduate work-ready from your degree programme.

Our previous graduates have found their sandwich year particularly beneficial as it has allowed them to gain practical, hands-on experience within their chosen career and the opportunity to learn directly from professionals based out in industry. It is not uncommon for sandwich year programmes to also open up future work opportunities in similar fields or professions for our graduates.
