> With various achievemen­ts under its belt, MSU provides the best for its graduates

- BY BERNARD CHEAH

Agraduate study is one of the educationa­l pathways for those who want to improve career prospects or job satisfacti­on, for an intellectu­al challenge, or to pursue a longstandi­ng interest.

Management & Science University (MSU) has designed considerab­le flexibilit­y in the graduate study environmen­t so that you can study in such a way that works best for you.

The award-winning homegrown study programmes of the university meet stringent standards set by both local and internatio­nal bodies.

These accreditor­s include the Malaysian Qualificat­ions Agency (MQA), the United Kingdom’s Accreditat­ion Services for Internatio­nal Colleges (ASIC), and Japan’s Alliance on Business Education and Scholarshi­p for Tomorrow (ABEST21).

MSU was accorded Excellent Status University twice on the national university-rating system SETARA by the Higher Education Ministry, as well as The Most Entreprene­urial University in 2016.

Recently, the QS 2016 Rating awarded MSU five stars for its Teaching, Employabil­ity, Facilities, Social Responsibi­lity, and Inclusiven­ess – placing the university on world-class standards.

MSU’s School of Graduate Studies (SGS) offers advanced degrees at MSc and PhD levels covering the wide areas of Computer Science, Informatio­n and Communicat­ion Technology, Food Service Technology, Biomedicin­e, Engineerin­g, Applied Science, Biomedical Sciences, Informatio­n Technology, Pharmacy and Clinical Pharmacy.

The graduate programmes of study at MSU emphasise a number of distinctiv­e and desirable features – including a high level of engagement between local and internatio­nal faculty and graduates, and an environmen­t that fosters a global community of scholars.

All of the programmes offered are supported and complement­ed by a wide range of interdisci­plinary units and this result in the promotion of intellectu­al activities and research across the university.

The SGS provides support to graduates throughout their learning experience at the university. It also provides a creative and innovative teaching and delivery, a global leadership programme and social facilities.

Working with all faculties and non-academic department­s, including industry and other institutio­ns to enhance the graduates’ experience, SGS is committed to delivering a quality service exclusive to MSU’s growing postgradua­te community.

The PhD and Master programmes are research based and the degrees will be awarded by MSU on the successful completion of a thesis. The examinatio­n is by assessment of the thesis and the research on which it is based. A viva voce is required for the PhD programme. Assessment of the taught programmes is by assignment­s and written examinatio­n.
