What is the Foundation Programme?
The Foundation Programme is a preparatory course designed for international students who plan to enter university but need additional academic preparation or improve their language skills before starting the main programme. This programme serves as a transitional stage between secondary education and higher education, helping students to adapt to the demands of university studies.

- Includes the study of subjects that correspond to the student’s future speciality, such as business, science or engineering. This allows you to prepare for more advanced university courses.
- Involves intensive courses in English or another language of study to ensure confident communication and writing in an academic context. Students also develop critical thinking, skills in research, essay writing and presentation.
- Helps you adapt to a new culture and lifestyle through special courses or workshops
The Foundation Programme requires a secondary education certificate with appropriate grades, language test results, such as IELTS or TOEFL (IELTS: 5.0-6.0 TOEFL: 60-80), a motivation letter, letters of recommendation, and an interview. Before applying, it is important to check the specific requirements for the chosen programme and university.
