Center of Foundation Studies for Agricultural Science is offering a fundamental science programme known as Foundation Studies for Agricultural Science and is a programme equivalent to those fundamental sciense programmes offered by other IPTA public universities.

The name Center of Foundation Studies for Agricultural Science is after the name Universiti Pertanian Malaysia which is a history memory of Universiti Putra Malaysia. Although the name has recieved numerous criticism, it remains superior and very unique to us as well as the students of Foundation UPM.

The programme of Foundation Studies UPM (ASPer) is open to all SPM science stream leavers and they must fulfil the stated entry requirements. The students can apply online through UPU starting january every year.

All ASPer students need to follow the programme for one year (2 semesters) at the UPM main campus in Serdang successfully before continuing their study to the degree level. With excellent achievement, the students are entitled to choose all the programmes offered by UPM.

However, for the several programmes like medical doctor, veterinary doctor, design and architecture and some other programmes, CGPA is not the only requirement. The students need to get through the interview process before qualifying for the pursuing programme.

We at the Center of Foundation Studies for Agricultural Science UPM are always trying to give the best to our students so that they are not only excellent academically but become the valuable human beings towards our religion, race and nation.
