FOUNDATION IN ENGINEERING

The one-year Foundation in Engineering programme is the preferred route for many Malaysians and international students to access engineering courses in Multimedia University. Set in a campus environment that enriches their preparation for degree studies, the programme’s curriculum focuses on delivering preparatory engineering subjects to equip students with strong fundamentals in order to excel with confidence. In addition to analytical and technical knowledge, the programme also focuses on equipping students with critical thinking and interpersonal skills to succeed not only in their undergraduate studies, but more importantly, as independent life-long learners.

After completion of the foundation programme you can opt for a degree programme from either Faculty of Artificial Intelligence and Engineering (FAIE) or Faculty of Engineering & Technology (FET).
