About UCFB x GIS
UCFB is a world first in sports education, offering university degrees in the sports industry.
At the University Campus of Football Business (UCFB) we pride ourselves on providing students with a stimulating curriculum in a unique environment at our UK campuses. Our degree courses have been designed with these industries and their varied roles specifically in mind. Media, marketing, finance, psychology, coaching and event management, amongst others, are all sectors of these industries that are growing at a rate never seen before.
Our innovative football and sports courses are tailor-made to give students and industry professionals alike the best possible chance of a successful career in their chosen sector.
All UCFB students have the option to study at two UK campuses at UCFB Wembley, London and UCFB Manchester, as well as distance learning options, with the optional opportunity of attending global experiences throughout their studies.
GIS Global Study Hubs
All UCFB and GIS students have access to the GIS global hubs which are located at Inter Miami CF Stadium, New York’s Red Bull Arena, Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Toronto FC’s BMO Field and the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
Foundation Years
We offer Foundation Years on a number of our unique undergraduate degree courses.
A Foundation Year could be an option if you do not meet the entry requirements for your chosen degree course, or if you have qualifications for subjects that differ to the subjects needed. The content of the Foundation Year is designed to ensure that you progress directly into Year 1 of the linked degree programme with confidence, and will enable you to gain the skills needed for your chosen degree.
The year provides students with the opportunity to reflect on their existing abilities, and to further develop key academic and study skills. It also allows students to learn about employment prospects in their chosen area of interest.
