Taylor’s College moves to new campus
EFFECTIVE Jan 4, all Taylor’s College students began their classes at Taylor’s Lakeside Campus.
The move from its two previous campuses, Taylor’s College Subang Jaya and the Taylor’s College Sri Hartamas, gives access to a more conducive learning environment for students, in line with the changing needs of the education landscape.
Taylor’s Education Group chief executive officer Datuk Loy Teik Ngan said: “In a fast transforming world impended with digital advances and an ever-changing job market, students are more than ever required to be relevant and future-ready to better serve their community and nation. Taylor’s Lakeside Campus caters to future leaders by being an education hub that emphasises holistic education experiences, while embracing digital transformations in higher education.”
The move will also continuously enable Taylor’s College to prepare and place students in universities of their choice by making available world-class teaching and learning facilities. Students will benefit from the modern Taylor’s Lakeside Campus comprising state-of-the-art laboratories, a four-storey library complete with a mini theatre, computer labs and more.
The campus boasts a vibrant community of international students from more than 80 countries which gives students the opportunity to enhance academic ability, communication skills and collaborative working skills through multi-cultural interaction.
Taylor’s College Campus director Josephine Tan, in her opening speech at the celebration event, said: “Higher education institutions have long been regarded as places to cultivate knowledge and transformation; a place where future-ready talents are being shaped. The move to Taylor’s Lakeside Campus will allow students to succeed in the future, especially when they
move on to university. By mingling with peers from diverse cultural backgrounds, college students will be able to explore ideas communally using the best tools available at the Taylor’s Lakeside Campus.”
Taylor’s College management team and students were transported from the former Taylor’s College Subang Jaya SS15 campus on 10 Harley-Davidson motorcycles and a double-decker bus to the event.
For Aemily Feanna, 18, a South Australian Matriculation student from Sabah, the move to the iconic Taylor’s Lakeside Campus is an exciting one.
“I look forward to the conducive and interactive learning environment made possible at the campus, especially the opportunity to access world-class study facilities such as the library and computer labs which will surely enhance my learning experience,” she said.
Taylor’s College will continue to offer two flagship pre-university courses, the Cambridge A Level programme and the South Australian Matriculation/SACE International (SAM/SACE I) programme from Taylor’s Lakeside Campus.
