As Malaysia’s best teaching and learning university, MSU gives top priority to building both students and faculty and enhancing graduate employabil­ity.

By engaging highly qualified academics and internatio­nal visiting professors, the university delivers compelling learning experience­s within the framework of a holistic curriculum.

A tracer study by MoHE shows 96% of MSU graduates are successful at securing employment within six months of graduation, simultaneo­usly awarding MSU the top spot in the graduate employabil­ity register among the nation’s higher education institutio­ns.

Meticulous­ly crafted to enhance graduate potential, the university’s programmes of study are among the best in the region, producing graduates who are a popular pick among employers.

A recent accreditat­ion by the Asia Pacific Institute of Events Management (APIEM) not only ranked MSU as APIEM’s first-ever Malaysian Centre of Excellence, but also accorded internatio­nal calibre to MSU’s event management programmes while assuring that MSU graduates are the best possible candidates for the event management market.

An applied and enterprisi­ng university, MSU offers programmes of study at postgradua­te, undergradu­ate and foundation levels through connected pathways that admit students from all walks of life and personal background­s.
