About
Asia Pacific University (APU) offers a comprehensive Foundation Programme designed to equip students with the essential knowledge and skills required for various undergraduate studies. Before selecting a specific pathway, students engage in a foundational curriculum that introduces them to diverse fields. This approach allows students to discover their interests and make informed decisions about their future degree programmes like Bachelors upon the completion of Foundation. After Semester 1, students may choose Engineering Pathway which is designed for those interested in engineering disciplines. It provides foundational knowledge in mathematics and physical sciences, essential for understanding and solving engineering problems.
