Utar Foundation Programmes
About Foundation Programmes
The UTAR Foundation programmes are 1-year courses that prepare students with SPM qualification or equivalent to enter into the UTAR Honours Degree programmes.
The programmes provide students with a comprehensive selection of core subjects that enhance their academic knowledge in the respective areas of study and at the same time,
develop their understanding and appreciation of other basic subjects.
Besides studying the core subjects such as Accounting, Computer Studies or the Sciences, students are also exposed to subjects such as Management Studies, Web Page Design,
English Language as well as Public Speaking and Communication.
Students are channelled to either the Foundation in Arts or Foundation in Science depending on their choice of study for the UTAR Honours Degree programme.
