Three. Studying in Malaysia
1, Language Environment of Malaysian University
In Malaysia, public universities implement bilingual teaching in Malay and English. As an international student, after entering the school, we must not only meet high standards in English, but also learn Malay, which invisibly adds a lot of burden to international students. Of course, it is good to learn more knowledge. Maybe you can consider working in Malaysia. In private international colleges or universities, English is the teaching medium, so that students can study professional courses with more peace of mind.
2. Malaysia's university education model.
There are some differences between public universities and private universities in Malaysia. Public universities are funded by the state and undertake the mission of national higher education, emphasizing the research and teaching of basic disciplines. However, private universities depend on the market to survive. The purpose of offering courses is to meet the market demand and constantly innovate courses. Teaching quality is the guarantee of their survival. This kind of course pays more attention to students' practicality and application.
