Our Goal
the goal of the school is to provide the baseline training for foundational courses to students who wish to pursue a career in Medicine, Fire engineering, Pharmacy, Nursing, Clinical medical sciences, and Environmental health. Once a student completes the foundation natural sciences, they progress to other schools of their choice to pursue a career of their choice.
The first year of training introduces students to entry level natural sciences, which enhance student’s problem-solving skills and provide the breadth of knowledge and practical skills to prepare students for further training.
