A new learning space

The APIIT School of Foundation Studies acquires a brand-new home-base on 12 March 2024. Located in the ultra-modern Access Towers II Office Complex on Union Place, Colombo 2, this new innovative space aims to transform the way we teach and learn. The new facility was declared open in the presence of Dr. Bharati Singh and Dr. Jobair Alam from Staffordshire University, UK.

Transformative education requires classrooms that foster collaboration and interactive learning; reconfigurable classrooms and non-traditional teaching and learning spaces at the new facility aims to foster just such a culture of synergistic and active learning.

The APIIT School of Foundation Studies aims to inspire love for learning through this modern setting to encourage young minds to express themselves and lend wings to their creativity.

What is the APIIT School of Foundation Studies?

With a focus on gearing students not just for higher education but for life, the APIIT Sri Lanka Foundation Programme is offered in three streams: Computing, Business and Law. These programmes have been carefully designed to prepare students for the respective degree programmes from Staffordshire University, UK delivered at APIIT Sri Lanka. The Foundation Programme offered by APIIT Sri Lanka fast-tracks the higher education journey of GCE O/L qualified students by providing an alternative pathway to university.
