I will let the IT pros answer on the difference thingy. Better in what aspect?

You mean degree in computer science? I'm from Software Engineering(SE) and I have a few friends in CS.

Core subject(1st year) is all the same, when it come to major, some subjects different slightly where CS might have those image processing class, expert system or something like that. I consider CS is more like an all rounder while SE subjects focus more on stuff like software development cycle, software maintenance etc.

Hi there,I want to know more info about computer science in MMU.

(Student can only specialize in one of the above areas in year 2)

Got it

How much I need to pay during study period after I applied PTPTN loan.Does PTPTN loan cover whole semester fees so I no need to worry about finance issue during I study ?

I do know that PTPTN does not cover the whole fees who the foundation year, but i cant recall how much. Other peeps here should be able to clarify. If you are free, visit us during the open day. You can pose all these finance related matter to the relevant department.

PTPTN only provides up to 8k for foundation.

Not sure if you've gotten your reply already, but have a look at this - Merit Scholarship

P/S : 50% is for 9As and above. Sorry for the wrong info earlier

hehe, probably someone made some phone calls

Is there any way to travel to MMU cyberjaya campus by public transportation? (From cheras area)

Nah, it's for the March intake students who just got their SPM result IMO.
Never seen them make any PUBLIC announcement on this.
I found out about this only when they attached the application form together with my offer letter.

The brochure they sent me stated pass in A-levels.
FYI, Grade E is pass in A-levels.
Why do you think it's not possible ?

in that case, i could well be wrong. Better call up to confirm.

About MMU's foundation,can it be use to apply for public university's degree ?

If it does,I'm thinking to take a foundation course only then apply my degree study in public university

http://www.usm.my/index.php/en/academic-a-...rst-degree.html

looking at the page, it is not listed as one of the channel. better to contact USM directly.

I'm a spm leaver and considering where to study for IT and i found MMU is great.......these is my questions

1)I have an 9A's for my spm and MMU is giving me 50% scholarship for foundation,which means it's unable to cover all the fees but i heard that ptptn do provide loans for MMU foundation,is it true?

2)I prefer to go cyberjaya campus,may i know roughly how much is the monthly expenses excluding rental

3)I heard that most of the MMU students speak english,i may speak english fluently but as never stay in a english community,can i getting well with other students?

4)Some of my friends say most of the MMU students are rich,is that true?Will I be difficult to get along with them?

5)At last,something stupid a,i feel that most of the students in IT course will be male,so will it be hard for me to find a girlfriend?

So every senior,brotha and sista here pls give me some advice and idea,xD

let me try to answer some of them and other may chip in later:
1) PTPTN do provide loans for foundation but I am not sure whether they allow a holder to have 2 source of sponsorship. Maybe come and visit us during open day and get clarification from the admission people. Or you may send them an email too.

3) You will just get along well. If you are from a mandarin/cantonese speaking family, you will have no problem too as many chinese students tend to converse in that language when they are among themselves.

4) This is not true at all. Most of the students here are from middle-income families and the rich ones form a small minority.

5) Haha, i understand your concern. Dont worry, you can always lurk around the campus and make friends with the gals from management

hi seniors, is there any course in mmu is about motion graphics ,post-producting, video editing? and how about the new course Cinematic Arts?
