Secondary schools graduates have the option 
to take an associate degree course upon 
completion of their secondary school diploma.
After graduated from associate degree courses,

program (2+2 mode) to obtain a Bachelor degree.

from a wide range of postgraduate courses for 
further studies, including research courses.
