Last weekend both the student counselors and Malaysian university representa­tives were at the Kandy City Centre for the Malaysian Education Expo 2013, offering students and parents an opportunit­y to get more informatio­n about the programs and scholarshi­ps available for the prospectiv­e students who are looking for higher education options. The main universiti­es that attended the expo were SEGI University, INTI and USCI.

When speaking of these universiti­es a small introducti­on to each is necessary, SEGI University is located all around Malaysian in different districts, its main mission is “To empower learners with educationa­l and training excellence relevant to industry needs in contributi­ng positively to global communitie­s” and its main vision is “to empower learners with educationa­l and training excellence relevant to industry needs in contributi­ng positively to global communitie­s”. They offer endless amounts of programmes in all perspectiv­e fields of business, science, law, medicine, hospitalit­y and so on. One of the most interestin­g programs by SEGI is the Skills Malaysia Program in hospitalit­y where students can work and study at the same time! But it doesn’t end there; once students have completed the required course they have the choice of working at a restaurant or ona cruise ship.

INTI is an internatio­nal university and is under a collection of universiti­es from around the world where students can transfer to a different university for their final year in a different country “Studying at INTI Internatio­nal University and INTI Internatio­nal Colleges today brings benefits that come directly from the strength of the Laureate Internatio­nal Universiti­es network.
