The Foundation Programme is a one year academic programme intended to serve as a bridging programme for opening up access to higher education to individuals who aspire to enrol for bachelor degrees but miss a few points to qualify.
The specific objectives of the programme are:
- To provide basic information to the procedures, methods and language of the subjects for degree level
- To introduce students to intelligent reading, assimilation, critical judgment, analysis and synthesis of information useful for higher level of learning
- To promote individual self-development and remedy deficiencies carried over from lower levels of education in the ability to speak, read, write and receive instruction in order to successfully undertake university studies
