University Malaya-Wales

Institution Overview

Owned by 2 prestigious universities, the Universiti Malaya-Wales (UM-Wales) was established based on a mutual partnership between the University of Malaya (UM) & the University of Wales, UK in 2013. Since then, the University has experienced tremendous growth and remains committed to developing students who are ready to contribute to the next industrial revolution.

IUMW is committed to providing quality education through excellence in teaching, learning, research and community services. IUMW is committed to fulfil all aspirations communicated by stakeholders including students, statutory and regulatory bodies, employers, and other relevant parties. In the interest of continuous improvement as an excellent higher learning institution, IUMW reviews and consults to allow innovative solutions to challenges in a dynamic environment. 

Education in the 21st century is about embracing digital technology. With technology constantly evolving, this is no easy task. Educators, in particular, have to keep up with not only the latest developments in their field but new teaching methods as we seek to equip future generations of Malaysians with technical, creative and communication skills.

It is therefore heartening to see IUMW striving to do just that through its truly multi-mode and blended programmes aimed at fostering a critical mindset to prepare students for an ever-changing market. Moving forward, IUMW will also be offering new specialisations to catalyse the Fourth Industrial Revolution as addressed in the Malaysia Education Blueprint for Higher Education 2015-2025.

Just as importantly, these programmes serve to equip students with people skills, which are just as important in today’s job market. The future of business and technology is collaborative, and learning how to work as a team – especially in a diverse, cross-cultural setting – is critical, whether you are in the public or private sector or intend to be your own boss.
