dont waste yr time n money in lkw. this place is a joke. the ape is a clown..

does anyone know which coll or university offers a better MARKETING course? I think LKW university's marketing 3+0 degree programme is good in collaboration with Anglia Ruskin university, UK. The fee is 10K(foundation)+75k(3degree years)= 85k for tuition fee only. I'm not from a rich family, and it's horrible to read through some older replies on 2006 on this thread how LKW university sucked their parents' hard-earned money.This issue matters me a lot! The most I can spend there for food and accommodation is only 1k per month only.

So, guys, would you go for LKW university if you have to spend that amount of money and wanna do marketing so badly? What I wanna is education! I dont wanna waste my time and money for a money sucking university. So, any senior around to gimme some opinions?

Added on December 31, 2010, 5:01 amThis thread is dying. So I hope if anyone see what i ve posted. Pls pls gimme a reply. I'm half-crazy lately.

I am going to MMU for marketing(hons) if nobody gives me some wise words during this period. My parents work more than 12hours a day, and now they want to use their money to finance my education. I'm so stressful to take any action in choosing the course i wanna do as well as the university i wanna go for. Yes, I only got 8A's in my SPM, am not excel enough in my academic to apply for a scholarship to assist my further education.

Pls tell me which university to go for 'Marketing' is the best choice and the fees i'm gonna pay truly worth it?
Pls pls pls and god bless, and so thanks, if you're willing to provide your info. Im running out of time and ideas in dealing this topic.

I've studied in both LUCT & MMU. They're very different in terms of environment, people (students), lecturers.

What I can say is, from my personal experience, I learned to be an independent learner in LUCT. My lecturers treated me like an adult (not kids) & they're very, very helpful. I also frequently go to see them in the faculty outside of classes to ask whatever I didn't understand. I was lucky that I met great people there - my circle of friends were hardworking people, caring & we always stick together. I also made a lot of international friends there, and their personalities? Depend on the person. Some of them were hardworking, and some of them are...lazy. But I've met lazy people everywhere too, so this is not something you'll find exclusively in LUCT.

In MMU, the lecturers are different..I'd say they're more like teachers. My LUCT lecturers are more like friends & more approachable. And the people (students) in MMU are normal people you'll meet anywhere. There are international students too, but it's not as much as in LUCT. I didn't experience any difficulties with the international students here. I have a friend, an African guy here who is a very respectable person, he's also in a student body. I also have some good Iranian friends here.

Regarding international students... because their cultures and ways of life are different from us, so we have to be smart in dealing with them and can't just judge them or stereotype them. Some of them are first time in Malaysia, so I think we have to understand them as they're trying to settle themselves here - just like if we're going to study abroad, we'll experience the adjustment phase too. Surely we'll expect some hospitality & understanding, right? So I think we can't generalize or stereotype a race.

I also love having international friends. There's so many things you can learn from them here without going overseas. They really open up my mind. Going to LUCT is an eye-opening experience. It scared me in the first place, but after a while I realized that other people can't harm me if I don't allow them to. The same thing goes to how well you'll do in your studies. If you're a hardworking and smart, you'll dig deep into whatever you're learning without your lecturer telling you to, because you just naturally want to. It depends on ourselves.

So from my experiences, no matter which university you choose, LUCT or MMU, surround yourself with positive people. Treat people with respect, and you'll get it too in return.

lkw marketing skills are really good, that's why they managed to blind a lot of people. It's better to go there personally to see it for yourself.

i already enroll in luct and this is my 2nd sems. lecturer is ok , the management sux big time. belief me or not?
i apply for ptptn loan already 1 year i haven get any payment , i call ptptn they say IPT haven send document to them, i go ask LUCT ppl they say they sent , so who wrong?i go ask them few time they avoid me ady. it already 1 years

Anyone heard about the course leading to B Arts Sonic Design ? Also, I am puzzled why LKW is accreditated by JPA !

How about Interior Design course in Kuching one? Plannng to study that soon...Any issues that not gud in borneo branch?

hmmm lkw student's usually run to other colleges like Raffles or overseas if they can. They just market themselves too good and then when students join after that, as far as I know 90% local students will leave. leaving mostly all international (africans and middle easterns) to wander around and waste time singing, eating joking, drinking booze in the middle of the day, smoke etc etc. There are some courses in which students do learn things but most just go down the drain. Go see for yourself la how its like. Thats what I felt when I walked in there.

So few study, others shake leg cause simply put its a college run by students.

Well, Im a staff working in xxx department, and I'll tell you why this Uni sucks. All the Owner care for is the number of students intake every semester. Regardless of how hard we work, if the students intake number is low, everyone will kena including lecturer. I have proof. This July intake is the lowest so far, and we all are suffering. Lecturers and other staffs have to go outside to promote limkokwing. We also have to make calls to 'potential students'. After doing all these gizz, no staff is available to entertain the students and parents who come to uni. Thats y EVERYONE says the management suckks.

U still dont believe me? Come to Mid Valley this 25 and 26 June for NAPEI edu fair. U will be surprise to see our number of staff who has to work. All consist of marketing staff, ambassadors, lecturers, head of faculty, proffesor, manager, director. All have to turun padang to promote cuz the intake number is very low. And we dont get paid for that, just replacement leave that will never get approved if we apply.
Hell I might get fired for this, but seriously I dont give a shit anymore

Any comments on the Bachelor for games programming and software engineering courses here?

Totally agree with that. Professor Emeritus Tan Sri Dato' Sri Dr Lim Kok Wing (heeew..... long name) is really a genius in branding and marketing, his PR is also fantastic (only to those people he wanted to associate with, usually the top people in the nation like former PM Tun Mahathir).

He is a GURU in A&P, he ran a very successful Advertising company before he got into education. He was also part of the think tank during Tun Mahathir era. If I am not mistaken he is the one who came up with the “Malaysia truly Asia” concept. Obviously he is full of creative ideas. However, he might be a genius in branding and marketing, but is he a real educationist? Does he know what is best for his students? With the kind of negative comments LKW is receiving these days, do we still need to think?

LKW is who they are and where they are today all because of branding and marketing. But how good is their academic quality, that's a BIG question mark.

Student of LKW, correct me if i am wrong. I heard Tan Sri has given direct instruction NOT to fail the students. Is that right?

So what happen if a student is too poor in the subject? The lecturer will have to sort of help the student to complete their assignment. Is that true?????

Added on June 26, 2011, 10:50 pmAhaaaa........ another thing i heard students complaint about, is that EVERY student is made compulsory to buy his Innovation book. How much does it cost again? I heard it was not cheap.

Hey, Tan Sri received a letter of congratulation from our PM Najib for publishing the book.

The part of turn over rates of staffs very high is true. Every sem also got people leave and new ppl come in.

I am interested to know how is the teaching & learning environment like, specifically for the architecture programs in LUCT; such as the quality of the facilities, lecturers, & course outlines.

Would any seniors like to share your experience?

Regards.
