Bridging Programme

The Bridging programme(previously known as Faculty Foundation) for international undergraduates was first introduced by the University in 2007. The programme is offered in full-time mode, with a maximum of two semesters.
The programme aims to prepare students with a sound basis for progression to the undergraduate degree programmes at UTM by ensuring that they possess the necessary knowledge, values, skills and competencies. Students are encouraged to reflect on their learning, and to be increasingly self-motivated and self-critical, with assignments and examinations becoming progressively more challenging and demanding throughout the course.
Some International students are required to pass the Bridging Programme before they can register into their respective Faculty for their Degree Programme.
