Hi. I'm getting my STPM results on 21st February which is next Monday.

So, I need some reviews from the current students or ex-students from these unis to help me make my choice ..

The degree course that I will be taking is Mechanical Engineering with Automotive ..

I dont have my results yet, but I would like to intake more information about the 3 unis .. so I can have more time to analyse the best choice biggrin.gif

between the choices you have given, it's kinda obvious UTM is the best =D

My teacher also told me about it .. Universiti Tendang Menendang .. once you failed an exam, straight kick out right ? shocking.gif Scary .. I didn't want that !!


Added on February 19, 2011, 2:24 pmWell, I think it all depends on my results afterall ..

If I get
3.00< UTM
3.00, UMP
3.00>, UTeM

UTeM quite good.
UTM must score very well, if not, you can be thrown away even in 1st year.

If youre planning to go to UTEM.
please make sure that you have your own transport.
Because in UTEM transport is always an issue

Hi there.

I am from Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP).

If you havent know, UniMAP is the only university in Malaysia who offers ONLY engineering courses. It is a pure engineering university.

Previously, UniMAP is known as Kolej Universiti Kejuruteraan Utara Malaysia (KUKUM).

Please take note of this university.

Anyway, good luck for your STPM results!

IIUM is not only for Bumis ^^" UiTM is the one that only accept bumis.
Other than the 5 research Universities, IIUM is the next best in rankings among IPTAs.

Why not try Universiti Malaysia Perlis?

As I have mentioned, I am from UniMAP, and currently I am doing my final year in Mechanical Engineering.

It is quite a new university and they are building their new main campus in a small town named Ulu Pauh.

This means that all the laboratory equipment and everything will be BRAND NEW!

As its name suggests, it really is an ULU place. The nearest cinema is located at Jitra, Kedah.

Just imagine how minimum the amount of distraction that you will get...

Of course, in town, there are places that you can hang out with your coursemates.

But the level of entertainment is very limited.

If you come from a large city like KL or Ipoh, you will have to take some time to familiarise yourself with the surroundings over there.

Now let me give you a brief guide of the attachments.

The attachment entitled UniMAP Campus shows a very general overview of the buildings and facilities around the new campus.

The buildings in the background is the hostels for students. Students can stay there for the whole duration of their course, no problem. No tendang menendang, nothing.

The greenish drawing and the building in front of it on the left is the library, and it is a three-storey library.

The greyscale drawing on the right is the Pusat Islam, and the building in front of it is the Chancellory building a.k.a admin dept.

The other attachment with the name Sch of Mechatronic Eng is the entrance to the School of Mechatronic Engineering.

This facaulty houses three courses, namely Mechatronic Eng, Mechanical Eng and Biomedical Electronics Engineering.

The enrolment criteria for diploma in UniMAP is very strict, to be honest with you. Especially into the School of Mechatronic Engineering.

This is because after your SPM, you get to study in an engineering-filled environment.

Not for the faint-hearted really...


Added on February 22, 2011, 8:00 pmBy the way, the School of Mechatronic Engineering is the top faculty in the university.

2.9 can't get you into UTM engineering course la. I've checked www.quansheng.org , you actually need more than 3.33 & above to enter UTM, the next you should try is UTeM. They are more towards a practical technical aspect, which I think is better than UMP or even UniMAP, it actually trains you & let you experience some of the real work situation. However, there will be more practical assignments there. rclxub.gif

And one thing...... There would be more bumis in UTeM than UMP/UniMAP if that is your concern. I usually do meet some paranoid people that can't live with bumis, but im fine with that

But if you're going to Nilai UC, then you should prepare your final year to go overseas..... or else why spending money in private u's if you complete all the years locally. I don't think there's a difference in Malaysian U's, the important is to train your social skills. However, in overseas, you'll naturally adapt to their environment, because it's their culture..... They think differently & socialize differently
