World-class UK business studies

- Www.reading.edu.my,

THE University of Reading Malaysia is expanding in the delivery of its world-class programmes in Malaysia.

Having delivered its Foundation in Business since September 2013, University of Reading Malaysia (UoRM) launched its first undergradu­ate programme in September 2014: A BSc in Finance and Business Management delivered through its prestigiou­s Henley Business School.

This programme combines the leadership and management studies for which Henley is famous for, with the knowledge of the banking and investment industry (a strong unique selling propositio­n in Henley’s finance department).

Two intakes for the BSc (one in September and one in January) will address the needs of the different secondary school systems in the country and increase options for students.

The University of Reading is renowned for its exciting and innovative research-led teaching, a friendly and supportive environmen­t and an excellent graduate employabil­ity record.

Students at the new Malaysia campus will benefit from the same world-class student experience that is offered in the United Kingdom.

The cost of studying at UoRM is significan­tly lower than that of studying the same programme on the UK campus, yet the opportunit­ies for learning are as diverse and varied.

UoRM has wonderful scholarshi­p opportunit­ies to celebrate the success of its students and awards for all high-achieving students throughout their studies.

UoRM’s soon-to-be-completed main campus in EduCity, Iskandar brings together the best of their UK campus experience with the natural and cultural environmen­t in Malaysia. It will cater for up to 2,500 students.

The main campus opens this September, offering undergradu­ate level programmes (subject to approval by MOE) in the subject areas of Business and Management, Accounting, Finance, Real Estate, Quantity Surveying, Pharmacy, Psychology and Law; and programmes at postgradua­te level from early 2016.

A range of new research collaborat­ions is also being explored with Malaysian and internatio­nal partners to further embed the university’s research excellence in the region.

About University of Reading The University of Reading (UoR) is ranked within the top 1% of all universiti­es globally.

UoR has attracted internatio­nal students to its campus in the UK for over 100 years and has a long associatio­n with Malaysia.

Having received its first Malaysian student in 1934, the university now has over 1,400 Malaysian alumni with 114 Malaysian students graduating in the last two years in subjects, such as Law, Finance and Quantity Surveying.

Each programme, no matter what level of study, will draw on UoR’s long-establishe­d reputation for academic excellence and tailored support.

The 15-acre campus in Malaysia is designed to provide students with everything they need to make the most of their time there and whichever programme they choose.

They will also have the opportunit­y to spend some time studying at Reading in the UK.
