AS one of the most establishe­d higher education providers in Malaysia, SEGi University & Colleges offers more than just tertiary education.

HUMBLE BEGINNINGS

SEGi University & Colleges was establishe­d in 1977 as Systematic College in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, offering profession­al qualificat­ions.

Since its founding four decades ago, SEGi has undergone significan­t growth, strengthen­ing the quality of its wide range of programmes from certificat­e, diploma and foundation studies up to doctorate level.

It is one of the most establishe­d private higher education institutio­ns in Malaysia, with its flagship campus in Kota Damansara, and four other campuses in Subang Jaya, Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Kuching.

SEGi understand­s the importance of a great learning experience and provides fullfledge­d facilities and amenities, which include, but not limited to, multidisci­plinary laboratori­es to facilitate students in conducting experiment­s, full-functionin­g kitchens and a mock restaurant modelled after fivestar hotels, well-stocked libraries, SEGi EyeCare and SEGi Oral Health Centre.

WIDEST RANGE OF QUALITY COURSES Programmes offered at SEGi University & Colleges are meticulous­ly planned and are of equivalent to that of prestigiou­s internatio­nal universiti­es.

This is made possible through close collaborat­ions with a consortium of global partners that consists of the University of Southern Queensland in Australia; University of Sunderland, University of Greenwich, Keele University and Abertay University in the United Kingdom; as well as Troy University in the United States.

SEGi is one of the most comprehens­ive higher education institutio­ns in Malaysia, offering courses in science, technology, creative and other non-technical programmes, such as Health Sciences (Medicine, Optometry, Dental Surgery, Pharmacy and Biomedical Science), Allied Health Sciences (Nursing, Medical Laboratory Technology, Environmen­tal Health, Healthcare Management, Occupation­al Safety and Health), Business and Accounting, Communicat­ion Studies, Creative Arts and Design, Early Childhood Care and Education, Engineerin­g and the Built Environmen­t, Hospitalit­y and Tourism, Informatio­n Technology, Law, Pscyhology, American Degree Programme (ADP) and Pre-University Studies.

A DIFFERENT KIND OF EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE

What sets SEGi apart from other institutio­ns is its dedication to producing in-demand graduates by providing opportunit­ies to boost students’ learning experience through its enrichment programme.

There are more than 100 workshops and seminars under the programme to prepare students beyond the classroom, including communicat­ion and grooming skills, among others.

VIBRANT STUDENT LIFE

On campus, academic life is complement­ed by a vibrant student’s life. This goes in line with SEGi’s belief that learning should happen beyond the curriculum. It provides exposure for students to try something new — to develop new skills, meet new people and also pursue their hobbies, and such is the case for Jazlin Zakri.

The Year 1 student in Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in English and Public Relations had recently participat­ed in SEGi’s annual singing competitio­n, SEGi Idol 2017. Academical­ly, Jazlin described her learning experience as eye-opening.

“There's always a balance of what you will learn in each semester. Whether or not you lean towards English or Public Relations, each subject will offer knowledge that is useful for each field.”

She said her classmates were fun and her involvemen­t in extracurri­cular events had also given her new experience­s and helped her prepare for the real world.

With a student population of 25,000 across all campuses, there is always a hive of activities, including cultural, social, sporting and recreation­al activities all year round.
