20 years of excellence

-

MELAKA-MANIPAL Medical College celebrates its 20th year in Malaysia this year. It is the third private medical school to be establishe­d in Malaysia and has delivered medical profession­als locally and internatio­nally.

Melaka-Manipal embarked with its flagship MBBS in 1997 and then launched the Dentistry degree (BDS) in 2009. These programmes were followed by the pre-University level Foundation in Science (FiS) in 2012.

All programmes are fully accredited. Melaka-Manipal is offering scholarshi­ps for the foundation course as it realises that financial aid for students in pre-university programmes are virtually non-existent.

Melaka-Manipal is committed to continuous improvemen­t and in providing the best medical and dental education.

Melaka-Manipal was the first private institutio­n to be granted a fiveyear accreditat­ion by MQA/Higher Education Ministry Joint Technical Committee for its MBBS in 2009.

In 2011, it was awarded the Brandlaure­ate Superbrand Best in Education-Medicine, and accorded six-stars in various categories in 2011 and 2013 in the ministry’s MyQuest ratings of private colleges.

Melaka-Manipal’s MBBS graduates are working across the world.

BDS seats are taken up 18 months ahead of its intake, and if one wishes to enrol for this dental surgery undergradu­ate programme, the only way into it is via Melaka-Manipal’s FiS.

FiS students are given first priority in applying for BDS before external candidates are considered.

The Foundation in Science was the first to include medicine and dentistry subjects in its Foundation curriculum.

Online applicatio­n can be submitted for next year’s intakes via www.manipal.edu/melaka, or contact 1-800-22-666 /017-2893055/ 017-2193055/ 017-3743055/ 0176913055/ 06-2896662 (extensions 1005, 1020,1032, 1035 and1142).
