Affordable quality education

-

“HOW do you think we build a future? I think we build it by investing in our kids and investing in education,” American academic and politician Elizabeth Warren once said.

First City University College (First City UC) helps you to discover your bright future through the building of a strong foundation from the moment you first set foot in its campus.

It invests in your education by nurturing you to become a graduate who is industry-ready and able to secure employment as soon as you complete your tertiary education.

First City UC students and graduates are highly soughtafte­r. Many of them were offered jobs before graduating while some received on-the-spot job offers during students’ portfolio showcases and project exhibition­s, which were often attended by industry representa­tives and prospectiv­e employers.

> Foundation­s with pathways to various programmes

First City UC offers three university foundation programmes, namely Foundation in Art and Design, Foundation in Business Administra­tion and Foundation in Engineerin­g, Science and Technology.

Each of the one-year intensive course leads to further specialise­d undergradu­ate degree programmes in business, mass communicat­ion, hospitalit­y and tourism management, design and built environmen­t, engineerin­g and computing.

During the year, you are required to study for three semesters under specially designed modules to acquire basic knowledge and skills you can expand on when you pursue your degree programme.

These modules will help you discover your passion and interest, after which you can opt for subjects and elective modules related to the discipline­s you wish to specialise in during the second and third semesters.

Upon completion of the foundation course, you would be able to start your first year in the degree programme of your choice.

> Industry-relevant programmes

First City UC is committed to making education accessible and affordable to all without compromisi­ng on quality.
