Minimum Eligibility

The Foundation Courses of FLAME's undergraduate programs are rooted in the philosophy of liberal education, which engenders both breadth and depth of knowledge. Students are exposed to a wide range of disciplines through which they achieve the desired breadth of knowledge while focusing on an in-depth study of one or two disciplines. Since the vast majority of undergraduate programs in India require students to choose between the narrowly defined areas of Arts, Science, Commerce, Medicine, and Engineering, the undergraduate academic programs at FLAME University present students with a truly unique opportunity to explore different realms of knowledge before choosing their specializations, and the Foundation Courses are fundamental to establishing this academic framework for all undergraduate students at FLAME.

At FLAME University, liberal education goes far beyond just the “freedom to take courses outside one’s Major". We believe that in pursuing the breadth and the depth of knowledge that a liberal education implies, students must also acquire certain skills over the course of their undergraduate education. Within the Foundation Courses students at FLAME are trained to develop habits that will eventually foster independent thought and a critical approach to content. We not only strive to deliver content but rather to inculcate a spirit of inquiry within the student. This is achieved through regular reading assignments with basic goals such as identifying the main concepts, bringing a set of questions based on the reading to class for each session, tailoring written assignments to answer analytical questions, etc. and through close tutorial contact with students providing ongoing feedback and review of progress and development. Students are trained to engage actively with the reading material instead of being passive receptors of content. In this way the Foundation Courses introduce and establish approaches to study which will be built on and extended at subsequent levels of their study.
