I. Overview
An obvious feature is that although the geographical location of Malaysia campus is closer to the northern hemisphere, the enrollment and vacation of its students are completely synchronized with that of Australia campus. Take a month's winter vacation from June to July and a three-month summer vacation from June to February.
In addition, in the common teaching system of the Australian campus and the Malaysian campus, all the course contents and assignments are arranged by the teachers of both sides after consultation, and the examination contents and schedules are exactly the same.
More importantly, there is no difference between the diploma of Monash University in Malaysia and the Australian campus. The final academic qualifications are uniformly awarded by Monash University and officially certified by international educational institutions, especially by the Ministry of Education of China and the local Malaysian Ministry of Education.
These factors make the Malaysian campus attract many high-quality students from Southeast Asian countries, and a large number of exchange students communicate with the Australian campus every year. Because the courses taught are exactly the same, students' learning has no influence on both sides. Because tuition and living expenses are relatively cheap, it attracts many students from middle-class families.
In addition, Monash University implements the whole school credit conversion model. Students studying in Malaysia have the opportunity to go to the four campuses of Monash University in Melbourne, Australia as exchange students, or transfer to Monash University in Australia after studying in Malaysia for at least one year.
Second, teaching.
Monash University in Malaysia has high requirements for teachers. Almost all the new teachers are obtained from international famous schools, and the interviewers are mainly teachers from the Australian campus.
When teachers are promoted to professional titles, they are mainly evaluated by Australian professors and Malaysian leaders. The assessment requirements are very strict, and only the number of periodicals of SCI can be calculated during the promotion assessment.
At the same time, teaching quality is also an important indicator of assessment, which makes the teaching quality in Malaysia campus very high, and the students trained are even better than those in Australia. The research results of teachers in Malaysia campus are included in Monash University system together with the research results in Australia campus, South Africa campus and Suzhou campus.
Third, majors and tuition fees.
Popular majors in the school are: business, applied social work, civil engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, English, geology, history, law, music, urban and rural planning and beautification, medicine and so on.
Advantages include: business and management, software engineering, biomedicine. The tuition fee is about one third of Monash University in Australia (RMB 1.5-0.2 million/year), and RMB 50,000 -0.8 million/year.
Fourth, life.
Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, is one of the most commercial, dynamic and exciting multicultural cities in Asia. Monash University in Malaysia, located in Shuangwei Town, 30 minutes south of Kuala Lumpur, is a famous high-end living resort.
Visit the famous Sunway Medical Center, Sunway Paradise and Sunway Pyramid Shopping Center in Malaysia. The school has a free shuttle bus from Sunway Group to these places, and there is an air corridor from the school gate to Sunway Pyramid Shopping Center.
There is the first BRT in Malaysia at the school gate, which uses BYD's natural gas car. You can take LRT light rail station or KTM computer Malaysia commuter railway within 10 minutes.
Monash University in Malaysia has attracted students from all over the world to experience first-class higher education since 1998. Multicultural student groups build mutually supportive cultural networks in a dynamic, international and moderate Muslim environment, and realize lifelong global contact through the global alumni network.
Monash University-Malaysia is not well-known in China. One of the important reasons is that most students in China are directly targeting the United States, Europe and Australia. In addition, the Malaysian campus should be taught in English, which generally requires IELTS 6.5 or above to apply for admission, which makes it difficult for many students with poor English scores to enter. However, the Malaysian campus is actively exploring the China market recently, and maybe the situation will change.
