Military Technological College welcomes new batch of students
The students will complete the essential admission requirements, including written tests, medical examinations, and personal interviews.
Studies at the college begin with a foundation year, which includes courses in English, mathematics, physics, and computer science, preparing students to join specialised engineering programmes. Their academic track includes practical training in laboratories and workshops, tailored to each student's specialisation. Students are distributed among the main specialisations based on their personal preferences, academic performance in the foundation programme, and the needs of their affiliated institution, which serves as a primary criterion.
Upon completing three years of specialised engineering studies, the Military Technological College awards an Advanced Diploma qualification.
This year, the college opened admissions for non-employment-linked studies for both male and female students, providing on-campus housing for male students and dedicated transportation services for female students. This initiative aims to create a comprehensive educational environment that meets their needs. The new batch of students admitted under this track is expected to arrive in the coming days.
