Established in April 2016, the School of Foundation Studies at Xiamen University Malaysia (XMUM) serves as the pre-university gateway for students preparing to enter undergraduate programmes. We offer tailor-made foundation-level programmes that provide a strong academic foundation while cultivating essential skills for university success and lifelong learning.

Our curriculum is structured to deliver a well-rounded education that blends theoretical knowledge with practical application. Through engaging, hands-on learning experiences, students develop critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving skills that align with real-world expectations. We aim to make learning relevant, meaningful, and future-focused.

At the School of Foundation Studies, we are committed to nurturing confident, capable, and curious learners who are ready to thrive in their academic journey and beyond. We take pride in being the first step in their pursuit of excellence—academically, personally, and professionally.
