The Foundation in Engineering programme is an ideal pathway to qualify for undergraduate engineering courses offered by the Faculty of Engineering at Villa College, by equipping students with the necessary, pre-requisite science and engineering knowledge and skills. It also incorporates the core engineering subjects such as mechanics, electricity and magnetism, robotics and computer programming that ease the student transition from foundation level to undergraduate engineering programmes. This programme helps students to apply the language and mathematical skills required to undertake further studies as well as use computer skills and applications competently for educational purposes and enables them to make an informed decision on the branch of engineering that they would like to pursue
