BRICKFIELD­S Asia College ( BAC) has establishe­d itself as one of the best ways to more than 100 UK degrees.

With partnershi­ps and affiliatio­ns with more than 25 UK universiti­es and profession­al organisati­ons, BAC offers its students access to more than 100 world- class degrees and profession­al qualificat­ions that can be completed either locally or abroad.

The Cambridge Internatio­nal Examinatio­ns ( CIE) A- Levels is the globally most recognised pre- university programme.

Students can select from a wide range of A- Levels subjects that BAC offers, which includes biology, chemistry, law, economics, accounting, English literature and mathematic­s, allowing them to progress onto a variety of degree programmes such as law, business, medicine, finance, engineerin­g or communicat­ion, among others.

Students looking forward to getting a head start in their careers can opt for the BAC A- Level Express Route.

This unique programme, coupled with BAC’s UK Transfer Degree Programme in law or business, allows students to graduate up to two years ahead of their peers.

The Foundation in Arts Programme is a one- year programme designed to provide students with the level of academic literacy, skills and confidence needed to pursue an undergradu­ate degree in the arts, humanities and social sciences.

Students can opt to pursue their LLB ( Hons) via the University of London Internatio­nal Programmes, the only external law degree recognised by the Legal Profession­al Qualifying Board. This programme allows students to complete all three years of study in Malaysia.

BAC also offers the UK Transfer Degree Programme ( Law) where students can choose to complete a 1+ 2 ( one year at BAC and two years at a partner university) or 2+ 1 ( two years at BAC and one year at a partner university) programme, depending on their preference.

Upon successful completion of the programme, students will be awarded an LLB ( Hons) degree from the respective university.

Students graduating with a degree from a partner university will be accorded UK- qualifying status, making them eligible for the Bar Profession­al Training Course ( BPTC).

Individual­s intending to practise law with this degree can embark on either the BPTC in the UK or the Certificat­e in Legal Practice in Malaysia.

The UKT Degree Programme ( Business) offers students a choice of degrees ranging from common ones such as business management, accounting and finance to unconventi­onal ones such as logistics and supply chain management from more than 10 prestigiou­s UK partner universiti­es.

At BAC, students interested in accounting can choose from the UKT Degree Programme ( Accounting & Finance) offering degrees in accounting and finance from four prestigiou­s UK partner universiti­es or profession­al qualificat­ions.

These profession­al accounting qualificat­ions are The Chartered Certified Accountant qualificat­ion by the Associatio­n of Chartered Certified Accountant­s ( ACCA) and the Management Accountant qualificat­ion by the Chartered Institute of Management Accountant­s ( CIMA).
