u guys can't group all the students at once.
I myself as a Luct student, been here for 2 years. and will be leaving for Aussies or UK next year.
Certainly, i am here to tell u that ... some courses doesn't provide qualified lecturer. There was once , they forced us to give the Malaysia Education Quality Assurance a handful of lies. Some lecturers doesn't even hold a degree or masters themselves.

But i have a few frens that are doing fine here. Providing if ur in a good terms with the lecturer ( u treat me nice, of cuz in return i ll treat u nice as well )

Anyway , if u guys were to compare TOA and LUCT . TOA is still far away from LUCT's reputation internationally ...
I can assure ,if u hold a LUCT cert and u go over to UK or Aussies to look for a job ... u'll certainly have the upper hand than any art students studying in any other malaysian uni.
I have a few frens from TOA and LUCT went over to UK , and the LUCT ones were the ones who were accepted .

The Degree/ Diploma that TOA offer, cant be compared to LUCT 's

to be honest Ive been in luct for two years, now under the architecture degree. for those rumours youve heard there; well I couldnt verify them but I can certainly say it has never been really an issue here, nobody seems to care.

quality wise, architecture degree is blessed with some great lecturers- they work not for the money they earn, but because they want to. most of them are part-timers, but if you think that's bad- I like to think otherwise. they can tell you their stories of how they really work in the reality. in fact, some students meet the lecturers in kopitiam or mamak stall to chat, and for tutorials! can you imagine that?

facilities, well you do have a laptop don't you? then who really cares about those new imacs they have in the lab. library is ok-ok, they have the books, but you can only find them if youre lucky. (they tend to be misplaced or borrowed for long terms). food? edible & expensive.

I don't know about other courses, but if youre really going to take architecture in luct, well I can say that be prepared to endure. you might give up your high school friends, your time from outgoing, your family, your favorite sport & hobbies. or your gf/bfs.

so long for 2 years, I've been kinda proud of luctian. yeah to other collegians, we got more pretty girls. eating in luct is a great time for both your stomach and your EYES.

Months ago there was some corruption case going around LKW... I received emails from friends studying there. Anyone know about this???

Any new students from LUCT here ?

erxier, your monkey very cute.. but can u ask him to stop moving? he sure look tired, man..

hi, any difference between interior architecture and interior design which are provided in LUCT? Is their courses are accredited by LAM?
Anyone can help.

i'm.this year is my second semester of foundation in LUCT cyberjaya.

this is a nice school to me.i like it.

I haven't read this entire thread yet, but I have noticed alot of posts bashing LKW. Just gonna drop in my 2 cents.

I'm a student there as well - doing Creative Multimedia. Joined mid-2006. Now, as a uni, I wouldn't go as far as calling LUCT horrible. They have their bad moments (especially the management), and yes, some lecturers aren't exactly up to par. Then again which uni doesn't have stuff like that happening? Every place you go will have its pros and cons, and it's the same with LUCT.

Some bad apples to ruin it for the rest of us - I've met my fair share of terrific lecturers, people who know their field in and out and share their experiences with us. Same goes with foreign students. There are alot of hardworking people out there, but you also get the typical douchebag that shows up to class late and stoned, go clubbing the same night and then begs the lecturer for an extension. About the whole drug issue thing - yes, its around. Choose your friends wisely, stay out of trouble and you'll do fine.

As for places to stay, my only advice is stay the **** out of Desaria. Terrible management, useless Internet service, its noisy and dirty. I stayed there during my first semester (foundation year) when Desaria was brand new - in fact, I was one of the first few people to set foot in there. It was a very nice place. But at the end of my 5 months, I packed up with my friends and moved to Cyberia. A huge improvement (by Cyber standards). Public transport is easily accessible, food is plenty, and its much more livelier. Plus there's a monkey swinging around too - no kidding.

Lastly, to everyone who are taking art related courses - be it animation or graphic design etc. and complaining that you haven't learned anything useful - buck up. I know you're paying a lot of money and you are expecting to get your monies worth, believe me I feel the same way too. But you can only look so far to get all the help you need. Put more effort into your work, and improve yourself (occasionally you might want to play the suck up card and be nice to your lecturer ).

Nobody is going to be able to teach you every single trick in Photoshop. Nobody is going to teach you how to achieve realistic renders in 3Ds Max. They are not going to be there every step along the way.

It's art.

People are going to look at your portfolio, your skills, your talent and hire you. I have friends who are ex-LUCT students who are an extremely talented bunch. They're doing quiet well for themselves. All I'm saying is that you may not learn much at uni (my photoshop classes were a joke really, but I did pick up some useful stuff), just try to get what you can out of it and help yourself. Only you can do that.

EDIT: F*** me, I'm so sorry for the huge wall of text.

but wat i can say is tis happen all around us, and yeaa choosing a friend in luct is a main thgs.
by the way.. im gona go to luct soon. i take web design and techonology.
any1 who study this?

I'm pretty much interested in Photography and I have decided to take Diploma in Digital Photography , as I ask a few college about it , one of them keep offer me to take Diploma in Graphic Design instead as my career opportunity is much wider to advertising firms and so on.
I'm not sure If I should take Diploma in Graphic Design as I'm more interested towards Photography and I have not much interest and knowledge in Graphic design.
Since I'm in science stream , I did quite badly in art and I hardly have any knowledge in it.

I really home some of you guys can enlighten me which courses and which college to go and help me choose the correct path.

Oh yea , any recommendations on LUCT , IACT or SeGi ?

Thank you.

It's a university for Arab and African, nuff said.

Hi,
I plan to take Mass Comm in LKW, any ex-students of LKW tat took this course b4?
or anyone has any opinions about the Mass Comm offered in LKW?

I have visited LKW and I could say their enviroment is just like a mini-heaven with loads of foreigners around just like what we saw in those movies.
I guess you should really visit there yourself and I doubt you'll ever think about other college after that.

huh mini heaven?
i thought there banyak case
banyak nikka
