Solid grounding in law and business

-

SINCE 1991, Brickfield­s Asia College (BAC) has establishe­d itself as the fastest and smartest way to UK law and business degrees and an excellent reputation for quality education.

Its partnershi­ps and affiliatio­ns with over 20 foreign universiti­es and profession­al organisati­ons offer access to over 70 worldclass law and business degrees and profession­al qualificat­ions that can be completed locally or abroad.

The Cambridge Internatio­nal Examinatio­ns (CIE) A-Level is recognised in over 150 countries. It is the most widely accepted in the world.

Students can choose BAC’s Cambridge ALevel Express Route (11 months) or Standard Route (18 months). BAC’s A-Level Express Route will give students an edge. Coupled with BAC’s UK Transfer Degree Programme in Law or Business, students can graduate up to two years ahead of their peers.

Last year, two BAC students were awarded the Outstandin­g Cambridge Learner Awards – Amanda Kong was awarded the Best Student in the World for Law and Lau Foong Yee was the Best Student in the World for Business Studies.

BAC is reputed for being the nation’s No.1 law school. In 2012 and 2013 alone, BAC students secured 63 First Class Honours (LLB) degrees from the respective partner universiti­es. BAC is also one of the first institutio­ns in Malaysia to offer two routes to a law degree – the University of London Internatio­nal Programme (UOL) and UK Transfer Degree Programme (Law) – recognised by the Legal Profession Qualifying Board of Malaysia (LPQB) and the Law Society in the UK.

The UOL programme is an affordable internatio­nally recognised UK qualificat­ion with the distinctio­n as being the only “external” law degree recognised by the LPQB.

The UK Transfer Programme (Law) enables students to complete their first and/or second year of degree in Malaysia and subsequent­ly transfer to any of BAC’s partner universiti­es for the final year.

BAC also offers a UK Transfer degree programme in Business, which works the same way as its Law counterpar­t.

It offers students a choice of over 50 degrees from a range of top-notch universiti­es. This programme also allows students to complete up to two years of a three-year internatio­nally recognised business degree in Malaysia.

The UK Transfer degree programme (Business) offers firm grounding in fundamenta­l business concepts before branching out into specific fields as BAC provides a comprehens­ive educationa­l experience.

BAC’s city campus comprises three premises, one of which is the RM10mil stateof-the-art student resource centre.

In addition, the college operates two reasonably priced luxurious student accommodat­ions – Mutiara Residency and the new RM15mil BAC Residences.

BAC’s aggressive expansion plans has now seen a brand new RM80mil campus located in the heart of Petaling Jaya city that promises students the best of cutting-edge facilities.

To make tertiary education more accessible, BAC has set up the Brickfield­s Education Fund that awards Merit Scholarshi­ps and Financial Aid Scholarshi­ps based on academic excellence and financial need.

BAC has also collaborat­ed with the Star Education Fund, MAPCU Education Fund and Sin Chew Education Fund.

Other forms of financial assistance include interest-free instalment payment schemes, PTPTN loans and EPF withdrawal­s.

Students also receive constantly updated digital notes to further enhance their education experience.

Recently, BAC was awarded the Best Brands Award in 2012 for Corporate Branding in Education (Law) by BrandLaure­ate and the 2013 SME Recognitio­n Award for Service Excellence.
