I have one really stupid question, what is the tuition fees of a master program in UTM?

I've got this LINK showing the tuition fees of postgraduate mainstream programs, but, this sentence kinda confused me: "Unless otherwise stated, the fees shown are for one semester of study and should be multiplied by the number of semesters of study to give an approximate total cost"

So, RM 5,025.00 is only for one semester, and I have to multiply it by 3?

Also, are there any scholarships offered by UTM or Malaysia that is applicable for taught-course based Master program? I'm currently studying in Taiwan and will be graduating with a Bachelor Degree, am thinking about applying for UTM's postgraduate programs, thanks a lot!

So on the other hand, UTM offers scholarship for research based master programs?

Yes I'm Malaysian, currently studying in Taiwan.

I guess I'd be applying for Master of Science (M. Sc) (Computer Science) or Master of Computer Science (Information Security).

I'm in this dilemma because if I further my studies here in Taiwan, I'd be given full scholarship which waives my tution fees and provide free accommodation plus around RM 600 stipend per month...But I live in JB and my grandpa kinda wish me to go back to Malaysia, thus UTM is not a bad choice where I get to continue my studies yet live close with my family.

What do you think?

that sounds plausible. but like i said, i'm not very sure about what taught courses covered by UTM scholarship. but then again, there are other scholarships out there that do. u just have to seek them out.

alternatively, u might wanna contact some lecturers in UTM, try and find out if they have a rather large research grants under their names. they might not give u a lot of cash, but they can give u equipments, books and stuffs like that (that's worth quite a lot).

Okay, thanks for your advises. I'll try to figure out the better decision then, thanks!
