The pre‑degree is a foundational one-year programme designed to prepare students for degree-level study. The programme covers a wide range of disciplines, including arts, education, engineering, law, medicine, pharmacy, science, and social sciences, ensuring that participants acquire the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in undergraduate programmes.
