Foundation Programme offered by Middle East College of Information Technology, commencing in the academic year 2010-2011, is in complete alignment with the Oman Academic Standards for General Foundation Programmes. It is structured to enable the students to meet the outcomes prescribed in the General Foundation Programme Standards on their successful completion of the programme.

Foundation Programme is offered to students seeking enrolment in the Information Technology (IT), Engineering and Management Programmes. It is structured on a three-semester model, each semester comprising 15 weeks. Each semester represents a Level with associated learning outcomes. Thus there are three levels namely Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3.

The duration of the programme varies for each student depending on his/her proficiency in the learning areas specified by the GFP standards. Hence a student who requires more intensive support to learn English language, computing, mathematical and study skills has the advantage of three semesters to attain the required learning outcomes. On the other hand, students with relatively higher learning ability could exit at the end of each semester on meeting the requirements
