Apologies if there's a similar thread to this but I've taken a look before asking here.

I've finally decided to pursue a degree in Civil Engineering. And based on my qualifications and financial background, I will only consider three local universities for that purpose.

UTAR
UTP
UNITEN

I've gathered some information about the three universities but wouldn't know which would offer better quality for my money and time and I'd like to seek advice and opinions from the experienced seniors here. Thanks.

hope other will notice and help you

i don't think you can apply for utp already this year. Their EDUCAMP just passed.

I am not sure if I can enter UTP. But that's what I come up with after narrowing my list. UTP's website states that it's application only open after announcement of matriculation results if I am not mistaken. Maybe I saw wrongly. It's confusing. Anyway I am not pinning high hopes on UTP too. If UTP is out of the question, then it's between UTAR and UNITEN.

As far as I know, Civil Engineering programme from UTP and UNITEN is MQA approved while UTAR is not.

And thanks for your kindness Spitfire

About the condition of each uni I am not too sure which is why I would love to hear from the people here

give utar a few years, maybe 1 or 2 years to get approve. uniten not easy to enter also

Applu to UNITEN it is easy if you have proper diploma/a-levels/spm results thow but its best you call up the admission people

What if UTAR don't get approved? Is that possible?

I have STPM.

blame it on ur senior then, wait for ur year la, then they will test u

UTAR a lot of Chinese lo..
UTP and UNITEN a lot of Malay lo..

Which one you like?
But UNITEN and UTP should have a better reputation than UTAR. UTAR not yet accreditated ma.

if u look at the UTAR's faculty members, u will be suprised. the university itself is new, but their teachers staff, go do some research on them.

Kolej Universiti Infrastruktur Kuala Lumpur (KLIUC)
(Nama Lama : Kolej Ikram) A4904
Sarjana Muda Kejuruteraan Awam (Kepujian)
Kejuruteraan

Accredited by MQR and BEM

will be surprised in what way? good or bad?

Thanks Indahjaya. I've actually thought of KLIUC but (I know this sounds stupid) the Kolej part of the name gives me a negative vibe. I'll look more into it and see

all quite senior.....most of them graduated overseas

There is a rumor that it will change into university next year.

in a good way... although they are old, most of them past retirement age, but they are very respectable in their field.. the reason why the r going to utar is because of higher position and the demand from them is less.

try to apply to ums at easy malaysia, chance is higher n the uni nt bad,

i dont think i included ums. unimas was in my list instead.

to studt to UTP, u must go to educamp which has an interview session with the lecturers and staff

what's wrong with a lot of malay..
dont be racist la..
im from utp and i can get along with the chinese too..chinese also confortable to get along with me.
no problem la..
