By providing you with a broad range of course options in first year, U1 helps you make better decisions for your professional future. It allows you to sample different disciplines, gain experience, and ultimately make a more informed choice.

Electives that “Move”
The electives offered in U1 are designed to “move” with you. The electives have been approved by the faculties and are applicable to any degree program you choose in your second year. This saves both time and money.
