It seeks to bring together the finest academia over two different continents and leverages upon the best of both worlds.
The University of Malaya is a true Malaysian legacy, one that all of us clutch to our hearts with utmost pride. It has produced some of the most influential people of our nation and owns a rich history in the landscape of national progress as the first Malaysian university. The recent world rankings have seen the university ranked as 87th in the QS World University Rankings 2018/2019.
The University of Wales was founded in the year 1893 by the Royal Charter in the United Kingdom. Throughout its proud journey as an institution, the University has stood the test of time and produced thousands of successful alumni, many of whom have been fundamental to the world as we know it. Till present the University remains as one of the most memorable game-changers for higher education in the United Kingdom. With His Royal Highness, Prince Charles of Wales as the Chancellor of the University, it is entrenched in the richness of Welsh heritage and the epitome of a royal culture.
IUMW is one of the first universities in Malaysia to offer an educational package that is a true synergy of its strong academic forces in both Malaysia and the UK. With just one admission, our students can obtain two degrees via our unique Dual Award programme and study at three universities; IUMW, UM and our partner campus, the University of Wales Trinity Saint David (UWTSD). The one-of-a-kind Dual Award programme also paves the way for students to spend one semester at the UM and UWTSD.
Our credit transfer mobility allows our students to pursue a 0+3, 1+2 or 2+1 arrangement with UWTSD and choose from six stunning campuses across the UK and Malaysia. The IUMW experience transforms students into lifelong learners with the knowledge, skills and confidence to conquer the world.
