Foundational Seminar Series
Our series of seminars bring the entire Pre-University cohort together to explore big ideas, gain real-world insight, and build a common foundation for learning. Featuring guest speakers and hands-on activities, students engage with key topics:- Expert Keynotes & Panels: Direct access to industry professionals and thought leaders who provide context for our four core themes (Human Wellbeing, Innovation, Sustainability, and Social Systems).
- Capstone Workshops: Students focus on developing the skills to craft their final Capstone.

Industry Experience
In this stage of the programme, students select one of four themes: Human Wellbeing, Innovation, Sustainability, or Social Systems. They are paired with a mentor and spend dedicated time in a professional organization, during which they observe, analyze, and identify areas for growth. This work is embedded into the school schedule, allowing students to apply academic learning on the field without adding extra time or weeks. -

Students will participate in high-level workshops focused on developing essential professional skills that can be applied across all fields. This will prepare them for Phase 3 of the programme: Industry Experience. -
