International Undergraduate Pathway Programs
The International Undergraduate Pathway Program (iUPP) at EduGlobal College offers a combination of content-based English language courses and foundational academic courses that help prepare international students to become effective communicators and collaborators and build a strong foundation in the learning modalities at Canadian universities. In addition, students will develop academic literacy skills that include:
• Reading, writing, speaking, and listening;
• Visual literacy;
• Collaborative learning;
• Critical thinking; and,
• Technology.
The iUPP courses are designed to increase student confidence and encourage them to read and listen critically, with consideration towards the viewpoint, bias, and relevance of texts in an English learning environment. Students will learn to evaluate claims, consider multiple perspectives, and synthesize and communicate information confidently and clearly.
