SEGI HELPS SECURE A SOLID FOUNDATION FOR FUTURE SUCCESS

PETALING JAYA, Aug 13 (Bernama) -- As many grapple with the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, SEGi University has recently announced its efforts to enhance the educational aspects of community development as the nation works towards an exit strategy from the pandemic.

Understanding the financial impacts COVID-19 may have on students and families, SEGi University, in its response to humanity, has been channelling its efforts for students across all racial, gender, and economic backgrounds to help kickstart their academic careers. The university has expanded its network to include partner organisations to mobilise its projects amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

"In addition to being recognised as a world-class and award-winning education provider, SEGi also believes in making education accessible," said Dr Chiong Kai Shing, the Head of Centre for Pre-University Studies, SEGi University.

SEGi University always looks forward to allowing its students to be part of thoughtful academic discussions to encourage them to become better-informed individuals. While education methods have pivoted to online platforms, hybrid pedagogy is here to stay with SEGi, allowing education to be delivered remotely and digitally.

Unfortunately, many students are expected to begin their academic experiences during this challenging period. During these times, SEGi stays committed to supporting students who have lost and are susceptible without strong social support.

Beyond the short-term measures by responsible parties, SEGi University, one of the most established education providers, is now offering a plethora of pre-university programmes in Science and Arts for students to venture into their chosen field successfully.

Formidable global partnerships with reputable tertiary institutions such as the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan), UK, Cardiff University, UK, Queen's University Belfast, UK, and Troy University, US, to name a few, helps facilitate a more all-rounded learning experience to all students. Following an elaborated plan SEGi has for students, the institution also encourages its students to pursue a degree at any partner university upon completing their foundation studies.

As the nation moves toward a foreseeable future, SEGi now offers the most versatile foundation studies with more than 130 articulation pathways for undergraduate programmes that are internationally recognised by top-ranked universities around the world. As an introductory programme that equips students with skills and knowledge, students will be taught and guided by experienced academicians to ensure a solid foundation for success.

Acknowledging the importance of soft skills, such as critical thinking, communications, and problem-solving, and the rapid growth of Industrial Revolution 4.0 (IR4.0), the curriculum at SEGi is embedded with these fundamentals to develop necessary skills in their graduates.

SEGi's free foundation programme is part of their bachelor's degree programme for students at no cost. The institution continues to build a solid foundation for their students to nurture them into future-ready graduates who can create impacts and help shape the industries at a reduced cost without compromising their talents.

In addition to SEGi's commitments for success, the university also stresses the widened disparity between the privileged and less-privileged students. More than ever, the institution is now calling for fellow education providers to make imperative preparations toward our younger generations for future crises.
