Learning curriculum
The program is modeled after the university training approach for overseas students in the United Kingdom. Accordingly, students study fundamental courses in the first year and specialized courses in the next three years. The training program typically takes four years and consists of 09 semesters (03 in the first year), with 08 semesters of knowledge acquisition at the Institute (which can include up to 02 semesters of foreign exchange) and 01 semester of internship in a business.
Students can choose to perform an internship at a business in the first semester of year 2 (or the second term of year 3) or take part in an exchange program on the basis of earning the required number of credits equivalent to internship.
