The University



On 6th October 2008, University College Sedaya International was officially registered as UCSI University. Being conferred university status is a landmark achievement for an institution of higher learning that has been providing excellent tertiary education in Malaysia for more than two decades.

Established since 1986, UCSI University is amongst the few Malaysian private universities to offer a wide spectrum of academic studies ranging from Engineering to Information Technology and Business, Applied Sciences to Pharmacy and Medicine, Social Science to Music.

Today, UCSI University offers its own university honours degrees in the above disciplines, and upon completion of these degrees students may transfer to a internationally recognised university for postgraduate studies. UCSI University degrees can also allow student transfers to other foreign universities for completion of the undergraduate degree.

UCSI University is strategically located in Taman Connaught, Cheras, some 10 km South of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Thus, students have convenient access to banks, financial institutions, eateries, transportation services, entertainment, and accommodation.

Also renowned for its cosmopolitan and unique international culture, UCSI University comprises both local and international students from China, Indonesia, Singapore, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand, India, Pakistan, Kenya, Congo, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Mauritius and Uzbekistan. With this setting, a student can expect to not only gain academic knowledge, but also be exposed to cross-cultural communication skills to enhance their future career pathways locally or internationally.

A UCSI University student’s learning experience is further enhanced by the cutting edge of technology, and the support of well-qualified and friendly teaching teams. Another profound plus point that assists UCSI University students in gaining new heights in their higher learning is from our academic support in providing them with a home-grown connected e-campus through the e-Advantage, alongside with their access to other state-of-art facilities, which include computer labs, applied science labs and a well-stocked library.

Therefore, a UCSI University graduate of any programme is fully equipped with the latest skills and knowledge, and can expect to achieve a high-flying career to meet the needs of the local and international industries.
