Overview

Key facts

The Middlesex University Dubai International Foundation Programme (IFP) is a 120 credit programme which aims to provide students with the required skills for entry into one of our undergraduate programmes.

In addition, it helps students to transition from high school to university by teaching the use of academic conventions, fostering a learner-centred environment and encouraging independent learning whereby students become actively involved in their own education. Students will also develop transferable skills in their chosen subject area along with communication and problem solving skills.

Upon successful completion of the International Foundation Programme, students may progress directly onto any one of our undergraduate programmes. Graduates of the IFP programme have gone on to become some of our most successful students.

The programme is aimed at students with intermediate to advanced levels of English, who have completed secondary school with good grades, but would like to improve their study skills to meet the entry requirements for an undergraduate programme at Middlesex University Dubai.
