Fast Path to Engineering

DAY Wed 12PMI

Fast Path to Engineering

This programme runs from late June to early November. Fast Path is a collaboration with the University of Canterbury (UC) that offers a pathway to an Engineering or Product Design degree. During your time at Hagley, you will complete a Physics and Maths integrated course in our After 3 programme that will prepare you for future study at UC. Upon successful completion, this will lead you to the next stage, a Certificate of University Preparation (CUP) at UC. Successful completion of the CUP course in relevant subjects (Maths, Physics and/or Chemistry) would then mean you can enrol in a first year Engineering course or Product Design course.
