| What it is | This is a one-year English and design foundation program for international students whose English skills need strengthening before entering architecture or design studies. You take intensive English classes alongside introductory courses in architecture, landscape design, and visual design to build both language ability and design thinking. It suits international students who have strong potential but need to reach the English proficiency standard the university requires for direct entry into degree programs. | You study both civil engineering and computer science in one five-year program, combining the design of infrastructure like bridges and buildings with software and programming skills. Unlike separate degrees in each field, this double program integrates both disciplines so you learn how they apply together in modern construction and engineering projects. It suits students who want broad technical skills and are willing to commit five years to gain expertise across two engineering areas. | You study engineering design by combining computer science, hands-on design work, and problem-solving across multiple engineering fields rather than specializing in one discipline like civil or mechanical engineering alone. This program emphasizes learning how different engineering areas connect and learning to design solutions that draw on several specialties at once. It suits students who want to engineer real products or systems but haven't decided on a single engineering focus, or who like working across different technical areas. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
