Why Malaysia?
Malaysia has rapidly become a very knowledge-based society with much high tech infrastructure and major international IT developments underway. It is racially diverse yet racially peaceful, multilingual yet everybody seems to speak English. The booming oil industry is opening up employment opportunities as well.
The affordable cost of tertiary quality education is one of the good reasons why international students should choose to study in Malaysia. Your education cost is made up of course fees which include tuition fees and other study fees payable to the institution, depending on what you are studying and the duration of your course/study program, and other components like the living expenses which will depend on which location you are staying in, your type of accommodation and your lifestyle.
There are over 700 private higher educational institutions and Universities in Malaysia. Many American and British Universities have set up their campuses in Malaysia for Malaysian as well as international students who wish to study in Malaysia at a lower cost. All these universities and courses are approved by the Ministry of Higher Education, Malaysia. All courses approved by a country’s Ministry of Higher Education stand approved by any other country’s Ministry of Higher Education world-wide.
In Malaysia, there are three intakes in a year. The fees is comparatively cheaper vis a vis UK and other expensive countries. There is an advantage of getting a twinning degree at many institutes and students can transfer their credits to another country where the institute has a campus.
Malaysia is one of the most pleasant and stress-free countries to visit in the world. Malaysia is home to some of the most beautiful scenery in the world, with national parks guarding its treasure trove of pristine beaches, crystal clear lagoons and spectacular wildlife. Malaysia known for its Petronas Tower is now becoming a popular study destination especially with Asian students.
