About
The courses at Sunway University adhere to the most stringent regulations. Our qualifications are recognised throughout the world, collaborating with top ranking international universities adds to the respect shown to our degree programmes.
There are various pathways to earn a Sunway University degree. You may choose from a number of diploma programmes offered, which enable you to gain subject-specific knowledge and technical skills required for your undergraduate studies. You may obtain exemptions from certain first year subjects if you fulfil the specified regulatory requirements.
Alternatively, with a diploma, you would be sufficiently equipped to enter the workforce, if you choose to do so. If you have completed our American Degree Transfer Program, but decided to continue your studies locally, you may also be eligible for advanced standing upon fulfilling conditions specified by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency.
On the other hand, pre-University programmes such as matriculations, foundations and A-level etc. allow you to explore topics in various fields of study, before you commit to pursue in-depth knowledge in a specific discipline of your choice at the undergraduate level.
Occupying 22 acres of prime land in Sunway City, Petaling Jaya, the campus is fully equipped with academic, hostel and sporting facilities and is amongst the largest and most modern private institutions in Malaysia.
The campus comes complete with wireless access coverage (Wi-Fi) available 24-hours per day which covers classrooms, lecture halls, cafeteria, library, concourse and open areas that are conducive for student discussions, communications, e-Learning and working on course assignments.
The University values security and have therefore set up a 24-hour Security and Auxiliary Police & Security personnel who are accorded full-fledged auxiliary police status.
Student LIFE department aims to provide a supportive, friendly and challenging environment outside of the classroom for academic success
and individual development of the students. There are multiple opportunities available for leadership development, skill
enhancement, social interaction, character building and community service activities.
Student LIFE also offers a range of support services such as counselling and wellness to help students meet some of the challenges they may experience as a university student.
Don't worry if you can't fit your particular question or problem neatly into one of our named functions. Staff within Student LIFE
work as a team, and with your consent, will be happy to refer you to the service or individual most able to meet your needs.
Do feel free to drop by to see anyone of us - we would be glad to meet and assist you!
International students applying for undergraduate study at Sunway must have qualifications equivalent to the Malaysian Higher School Certificate known as Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia (STPM). The methods used by the University to determine the overall grade of several pre-university qualifications are as follows:
A-Level
The A-Level is a secondary school leaving qualification in the United Kingdom (UK) and commonly offered as an international qualification outside the UK. Students’ best three grades achieved in their A-Level qualification would be assigned specific points and summated to arrive at a score that would be considered for admission.
International Baccalaureate
If students’ total points on the International Baccalaureate, excluding bonus points, exceed the stated requirements, they would then qualify for admission. Students also need to present proof of successful completion of a diploma.
Graduate Study
For admission to a graduate study programme at Sunway, international students should have completed a relevant bachelor’s or honours degree, as appropriate, with the required grade point average. Students whose first language is not English must also provide proof of proficiency in the English language, with an IELTS score of at least 6.0 or an equivalent score on the TOEFL. In some cases, a portfolio or any other proof of further work done may also be required.
