Got a question for us?
What are our students saying?
I found the Foundation programme at CUCMS to be unique as it is the only course which emphasized on the concept of Affective Domain which is a module by itself. The university has stayed true to its objectives of shaping ethical professionals with positive attitude and to produce holistic individuals rather than just focusing solely only on the cognitive aspect of learning.
