Several interesting choices of disciplines await Foundation (Pre University) students at MSU. These disciplines are offered after taking into account the one year duration that will be spent and the student's state of preparedness before they begin the first year Bachelor's degree studies.

For those who have a keen interest in the Health Sciences disciplines, the Foundation (Science Biology/Health Science) is a good option to start with. This is an ideal programme for those interested to become a medical practitioner and to continue with the Bachelor of Surgery and Bachelor of Medicine (MBBS) studies.

Through ISEP students may choose one of over 40 universities located in the USA, UK, Australia, Eastern Europe, South Africa, Japan, New Zealand, India, and Indonesia to complete their degrees. The opportunity to study at these universities will further enrich their development and enhance their standings for a better career prospect.

The emphasis on programmes which are industry relevant has always been MSU central tenets. A symbiosis between academic curriculum and industrial shifts has been crucial in determining the relevancy of its product to current trends. Such response to change has resulted in 95% of MSU's graduates securing employment during the first 6 months upon graduation.
