The IS2 is the equivalent to the second year of a four year Scottish undergraduate degree. This programme is designed to help you develop your academic knowledge and skills within your subject area. You will also focus on improving your English academic literacy in preparation for continuing onto your chosen Edinburgh Napier undergraduate degree. Studied across three terms, you will continue straight onto year three of your degree course at Edinburgh Napier University once you have successfully completed the pathway.

A great location

With three campuses, each defined by distinctive features and course specific facilities, they are much more than where you go to study.

Edinburgh Napier comprises six schools with an international focus, each committed to growing our academic reputation, delivering an excellent personalised student experience and building innovation, enterprise and citizenship.
