About Activities

Foundation University in its quest for excellence in mind, body and
character has clearly spelled out the primacy if its mission of developing the total
person of every student that comes under its fold. Along this line, all activities
that the University undertakes are designed to provide opportunities for all
students to develop their mind, body, and character. Generally, these activities
are conceptualized and planned by a committee of administrators, faculty and
student representatives. These activities are then carried out by the responsible
departments for effective implementation.

Activities are categorized into department level and university level.
Department level activities are those that are planned and carried out at the level
of the departments. On the other hand, university level activities are those that
are planned at the university level and are implemented university-wide and
participated in by all members of the university community.
