TAR UC’s innovative pathway towards excellence

SINCE its establishment in 1969, Tunku Abdul Rahman University College (‘TAR UC’) has carved a reputation for its academic excellence and holistic education that is well recognised by industry and academia.

Over the past 48 years, TAR UC has educated more than 180,000 graduands who have gone on to become professionals, captains of industries, national leaders and successful entrepreneurs in Malaysia and around the world.

Such respectable track record is correlated with TAR UC’s innovative pathway that has been refined along with the changes in the market and industry needs to ensure that the education that students receive at TAR UC will shape them to be tomorrow’s leaders.

At TAR UC, we ensure that school leavers are well-prepared for the industry or academia right from the point they join TAR UC until they complete their tertiary education. Therefore the academic pathway in TAR UC is structured in such a way that equips the students with all the necessary skills and knowledge for them to seamlessly join the industry or to assume higher studies at postgraduate level. After SPM, there are two pathways for school leavers to choose from depending on the students’ career aspiration and ambition. School leavers who prefer to prepare themselves academically for undergraduate studies may start with preuniversity programme.

At TAR UC, we provide foundation as well as A Level which are pre-university programmes to give school leavers a solid grounding to advance to undergraduate studies.

TAR UC’s foundation programme is an intensive 1 year programme that aims to prepare students to progress seamlessly onto TAR UC’s Bachelor Degree programmes.

Meanwhile, A Level is a 1.5 year pre-university programme that builds a strong foundation for students to advance to Bachelor Degree programmes either in TAR UC or many other universities worldwide. Upon completion of either TAR UC’s foundation or A Level programme, students can proceed to enter Year 1 of TAR UC’s 3-year or 4-year Bachelor Degree programme subject to meeting the minimum entry requirement.

There are close to 50 Bachelor Degree programmes being offered by TAR UC for students to choose from and they are highly regarded by industries for their academic rigour and high standards.
