It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the General Foundation Programme at Muscat University. This programme marks the beginning of an exciting journey—one that will shape not only your academic pathway but also your personal growth, confidence, and readiness to embrace the challenges and opportunities of higher education.

The General Foundation Programme has been carefully designed to equip you with the essential skills and knowledge required to succeed in your chosen undergraduate degree. Our curriculum focuses on developing English language proficiency, mathematics, information technology, and study skills—four areas that are the cornerstone of effective learning at university. Beyond academics, the programme also nurtures critical thinking, teamwork, problem-solving, and independent learning, all of which are vital in today’s fast-changing world.

At Muscat University, we recognise that every student brings unique strengths, ambitions, and potential. The GFP provides a supportive and engaging environment where you will be encouraged to explore, question, and grow. Our dedicated faculty members are here not only to teach, but also to mentor, inspire, and guide you as you take your first steps toward building a successful academic and professional future.

Importantly, the GFP is more than just a bridge to your degree—it is a transformative experience. It gives you the opportunity to adjust to university life, build confidence in your abilities, and discover new interests and talents. By the time you complete the programme, you will be fully prepared to pursue your chosen field of study with clarity, resilience, and determination.

As Director, my message to you is simple: embrace this stage of your journey wholeheartedly. Take advantage of the resources, support, and opportunities that Muscat University offers. Engage actively in your classes, participate in campus life, and connect with your peers and lecturers. These experiences will shape not only your academic progress but also the person you become.

We are proud to have you as part of our university community, and we look forward to seeing you succeed and thrive in your studies. The General Foundation Programme is your gateway to achievement, and I am confident that you will emerge from it stronger, wiser, and ready to contribute meaningfully to Oman, the region, and the wider world.
