The mission of the General Foundation Programme is to provide an educationally dynamic and supportive environment to enable students to attain the English language, IT, Maths and study skills required to successfully engage in undergraduate studies. In addition, we seek to instil in students a sense of collaboration, integrity, community responsibility and commitment to achieving their full potential.

The General Foundation Programme is a one-year preparatory programme over two semesters. Students are required to pass Semester One modules before proceeding to Semester Two.

The General Foundation Programme is a bridging programme for school leavers to proceed to Diploma- or Degree-level study which is conducted in English. It equips students with the necessary study and academic skills required at the undergraduate level.

Students must satisfactorily complete 10 modules to be eligible for the award of the Foundation Certificate.

Please note that programme structures may be subject to change and modules may be offered in any of the semesters in an academic year.
