Malaysia is a great country for tertiary studies – Be guided by Edlocate
View(s):Malaysia, one of the emerging developed countries in Asia offers quality education to international students through over 70 private universities that have been established in the country. The establishment of private universities and university colleges authorized to confer their own degrees were made possible with the passage of the Private Higher Educational Institutions Act of 1996.
Why Study in Malaysia? With more than 40,000 international students from over 100 countries studying in Malaysia it has become an increasingly popular place to seek tertiary education. It has easily become one of the strongest centres of academic and higher education excellence in the region.
It offers Quality Education Programs – the quality of educational institutions in Malaysia is monitored by the Malaysian government through many enforcement institutions. The Malaysian Qualification Agency (MQA) provides guidelines and constant monitoring to ensure colleges and universities meet the highest standards in education and are internationally recognized.
The institutions provide professional, career-focused education offering courses that are up-to-date and market relevant.
Low Cost Living and Tuition Fees – Tuition fees of accredited and high quality programmes in Malaysia are very reasonable and highly affordable. The cost of living is also very low. A student can get by living comfortably for about RM10, 000 a year (AUD3, 500).
Courses are Conducted in English – International students should not have any problems studying in Malaysia as English is the primary medium of instruction for all courses and study programs conducted at the private higher educational institutions.
Multicultural Studying Environment – International students studying in Malaysia will get to experience living in a plural and multicultural society.
Safe and Comfortable Place to Study – Malaysia is a politically sound and geographically safe country free from natural disasters making it a safe and a comfortable place to live and study.
International students could also get an accredited degree from many world-renowned universities in Australia, NZ, Canada, UK or USA through the twinning programs or branch campuses of those universities in Malaysia. International students who wish to obtain a degree from such developed countries could enrol in collaborative degree programs with reputed international universities. Some of these programmes enable students to complete the entire foreign degree programme in Malaysia itself, and still be conferred with a degree from the partner university overseas. Alternatively, international students can complete part of the study programme in Malaysia and complete the programme in the main university overseas.
Australia is a very popular study destination for international students throughout Asia. Its high quality programmes and the reputation of their universities have made the Australian degree programs high in demand. International students will be happy to know that through Edlocate they can do the first or first two years of the programme in 6 Malaysian universities and complete the remaining year/s in most of the Australian universities it represents thus making substantial cost savings as compared to taking the degree program fully in Australia and also be eligible to post study work visa offered by Australia.
