The Winter Enrichment Program (WEP) takes place in January each year and is designed to broaden students' horizon. WEP is an essential and core requirement of the degree programs at KAUST. Satisfactory completion of at least one WEP is required of all M.Sc. students as part of the completion of the degree requirements. Ph.D. students who did not receive their M.Sc. degree at KAUST are also required to satisfactorily complete at least one WEP. To satisfy this mandatory requirement, full participation must occur within a single WEP period.
