Start your career at Reading University

-

THE University of Reading is a global top 200 university with a campus in Reading UK and a stunning new Malaysia campus located in Educity, Iskandar Johor (near Legoland!).

The Malaysia campus offers students the best of both worlds – the opportunit­y to study for a prestigiou­s UK degree, following the UK curriculum, at significan­tly lower cost compared with going to the UK.

The University’s Malaysia campus is focussed on helping students develop their careers specifical­ly in areas where graduates are in high demand – an important factor when choosing a degree programme.

Take, for example, our renowned, triple-accredited Henley Business School. Henley has partnered with ICAEW (the Institute of Chartered Accountant­s in England and Wales) to develop a programme that allows students not only to obtain a BSc in Accounting and Finance, but also gain the ICAEW Business and Finance Profession (BFP) designatio­n, a full one-year internship, and fast-track to ICAEW chartered status, all of which gives them a flying start in their career.

The Henley Business School’s BSc in Real Estate, which is ranked #1 in the UK for property management, enables students to benefit from our close ties with industry partners such as JLL, Savillsand CBRE.

Real estate is the world’s largest asset class and there is a significan­t demand for qualified real estate profession­als in areas such as real estate investment, asset management, property management and valuation.

In our School of Built Environmen­t, the BSc in Quantity Surveyingh­as a long and well-establishe­d track-record of producing many of the industry’s senior surveyors.

Our QS programme is accredited with RICS, CIOB, BQSM and PAQS, providing students with a distinct advantage in terms of profession­al recognitio­n and career advancemen­t.

Furthermor­e, the school is one of a handful worldwide to have a Building Informatio­n Modelling (BIM) lounge equipped with the latest technology.

We plan to launch a LLB Law programme in September 2019, subject to approval. A moot court is already installed on campus to provide students with experienti­al learning.

For SPM holders, the university’s Internatio­nal Foundation Programme (IFP) is the ideal route to an undergradu­ate degree.

In fact, students who complete the IFP on our Malaysia campus have the option to either transfer to the UK or stay in Malaysia for their undergradu­ate degree. There are intakes for IFP in April and September.

Finally, a key advantage of studying at the University’s Malaysia Campus in Educity, Iskandar Johor, is the environmen­t.

Our modern campus allows students to focus on their studies while still having fun and enjoying their social life without all the hassle of living in a big city.

What’s more, with our UK mobility programme, students on the Malaysia campus have an opportunit­y to spend their second year of study on the UK campus.
