What you will study..?
Engineering Foundation program is an alternative pathway to BSc (Hons) in Aerospace Engineering degree program delivered in collaborative partnership with Kingston University, London, United Kingdom. This is a provision to bridge in the gap of the educational qualifications required to enlist to above program .
The staff available at the Asian Aviation Centre Engineering Academy (AACEA) has plenty of years of experience in delivering the first two years out of the three year BSc in Aerospace Engineering (Honors) Degree program. This same staff would be delivering the Foundation Program to coach students who lacks the entry qualifications to uplift their knowledge level to that of the standard required through a structured assessment process. Those who reach the pass marks would be qualified to enroll to BSc (Hons) in Aerospace Engineering degree program in the month of January every year.
As per the results obtained at the Advanced Level examination, students would opt to join one of the two program available at two different periods of an academic year.
