I did enjoy my Foundation years very much due to good groups of friend and the July batch of classmates was just awesome. The best part is that I don't have to take some random subject that doesn't relate to what I want to do in the future.
I found these 7 reasons to do foundation at Taylor's here, so I just thought of sharing it with you.
Enjoy a Direct Pathway
The foundation programmes provide a direct bridge into top notch undergraduate studies at Taylor's. Upon successful completion of a foundation programme, you are assured of a place in your degree programme of choice*. So whether you desire a career in architecture, computer science, design, medicine or another field, Taylor's foundation provides a clear pathway to follow and lays the groundwork for you to attain your educational and career goals.
*Additional selection criteria may apply to specific degree programmes, such as Medicine and Pharmacy.
University Faculty Management
Each foundation is managed by faculty of the respective schools and they have the freedom to incorporate the latest developments in undergraduate theories. Since the curriculum is designed by the individual schools, each one has direct control of students' progression into the various undergraduate degree programmes and the responsibility to set and maintain academic quality.
Exposure to Discipline-Specific Subjects
The curriculum of each foundation programme includes subjects that are related to that particular field of study to give you essential fundamentals and expose you to your field of interest from early on. For example, a student interested in a business administration degree studies beyond general subjects like accounting and economics; they also explore areas, such as enterprise, quantitative techniques and organisational behaviour.
Learn through Discovery
You are guaranteed a hands-on learning environment. Classes promote two-way interaction and sharing of knowledge and resources among students and faculty. You will gain a deeper understanding of what you are learning through real-life simulations, out-of-classroom field and study trips, interaction with working professionals and participation in competitions. Through Project-Based Learning, you are challenged to enhance problem solving skills and become an independent learner.
Benefit from a Student Support System
Through First Year Experience (FYE) initiatives, you gain the much needed support to adjust well to university life and be successful in both academic and extra-curricular activities. The initiatives, ranging from motivational talks to peer-assisted study sessions and surveys, focus on helping you adapt to the university's intellectual and social environment; stimulate excitement in learning; facilitate the understanding of diversity issues; and give you valuable skills that will last a lifetime.
Learn from Highly Qualified Faculty
Foundation programmes are taught by dedicated full-time academicians with a range of expertise. They prioritise your needs and are experienced in harnessing your full potential to help you achieve your goals. You also have the added advantage of learning from degree-level lecturers, who have extensive professional and/or academic experience.
Undergo Continuous Assessment
Continuous assessment is practiced throughout the duration of study in all programmes. You are graded through a combination of examinations, assignments, projects and quizzes each semester. This enables you to track your progress and performance, as well as make necessary improvements throughout the learning process.
