Ah screw it, I didn't see a chemical dump site area anywhere near the Uni...
Where do you get the source from?

Semenyih is small, packed, but the Uni is good. Nice surroundings, like a forest.
You can sure study there, if you want to. But, for sure entertainment is only @ semenyih town.
The environment is very good, no polution, except for the water supply, got UNiM got water filters don't u worry. I am so far so good there besides I need to walk long 5 min from my TTS[Taman Tasik Semenyih] to campus if I miss the shuttle service.

Nottingham la. Try to get more feedback from others.

Hmm, juz a quick question on the staff at nottingam malaysia, are they helpful? it seems a relative of mine complained that the staff was rude to her during one of her scholarship interviews there and has since studied at Monash Sunway becoz she is pissed.

I am a scholarship holder, I've been to the interview.
They treat me very well.
Or maybe that ur relative did something wrong during the interview? e.g. boasting or arrogant? that might be a possible issue. [No offense]

Hohoho...who is the interviewer....let me tell to the person who are in charge.....or else....I can call up my gang whack him up...since there is only one way out to Semenyih town...kidnap him to the Broga area...kekeke

The only staff issue happened in UNiM is:
Problem: The canteen is not clean and the staff is rude.
Current Situation: Solved - The staff in canteen are way better now. Trust me.

eric84cool - u wanna increase post count or wat?? Whack the interviewer...

well, i wasnt there and i wouldnt know for sure what happened but just wanna know from the students regarding the general feel.

Okay to be honest the staff there is quite helpful besides the accomodation staff
they keep on delaying everytime you wanna do something with them, ie. paying rental fee or enquiry.

Haih... Overall the staff is not bad.

Im a newbie..nice to meet you all

Yes. So far, the engineering courses in Nottingham are accredited by LAN except Mechanical Engineering. That you have to check out or those studying in it, can have a peek at it. Regarding the Year 2 transfer to UK, yes, it is true. You can choose to do your year 2 in Nottingham UK campus, be it for one semester, or for two semesters (the whole year 2).

in other word, twinning rite?

Err... Yes and no... The meaning of twinning, as far as i am concerned, means you are pursuing a degree locally from an overseas university. It has nothing to do about completing your year 2 abroad or locally. Get what I mean?

but if the certificate is from uk..?

then is it the same between people doing 3+0 and 2+1?

The 2+1 is for you to experience UK life!!
Eventhough you're studying in Nottingham Malaysia, you might want to go to Nottingham UK for a year to experience their culture, lifestyle, meeting different people. Eventhough you pay the same amount if you go nottingham UK for a year, you gotta pay for your own living expenses. Some people thought this is expensive, that's why they decided to stay in Malaysia.

Yes. It is the same between 3+0 and 2+1. They are both twinning programs. The difference is off coz, 3+0 means everything is done locally while 2+1 basically means you will be doing one year abroad. The degree obtained is the same for both. The reason they have this kind of system is well explained by felixwhoals

Well, looks like this is quite interesting.
I have some quesitons here.
I'm a SAM student studying in Taylor College, Subang Jaya.
My SPM results is considered average, at least still afford to get the scholarship in this uni.
Btw, do u think i'm wasting my money and time if i enroll the engineeing course after finishing my SAM?
Do i need to take the foundation again?
Besides, what's the actual fees for the whole 3-year course?
Izit around 30k or i'm wrong, it should be 30k for 1 year?

After completing SPM, if you were to give up SAM, then you'll have to take the foundation in Nottingham (if they are offering it to you).

What do you mean wasting your time?
As you know, SAM is just a preU course. After completing it, you can go for a degree in Nottingham.
If you are asking whether to quit half way after SAM (its july anway) and take up a foundation course in Nottingham. Then I'd say its completely waste of time and money. With SAM, you are still able to enrol in Nott. U.

I dont know what's the actual fees, but it wont be 30k for a full degree course.

30k per semester. try to look at the main website

Wah! 30k per semester, that's a lot!
Anyone studying knows the actual fees?
Oh.. So u mean i can skip the foundation and straight away take its degree course?
But i think the syllabus are different, one from AUS and one from UK, duno if i can really do so..

SAM? Whats that? I'd really suggest A Levels or STPM if you wanna get into Nottingham.

Fees for whole 3 years?
http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/international/...uition_fees.php

Just multiply 1 year by 3 or whatever it is.

30k RM a year? No matter what course you do, you can expect to spend at least about 100-120k RM a year (including tuition fees). Probably more for medics, and if you're considering London, add abit more.

Course, this is about the UK campus. Malaysian campus, no idea.

uk = 3 years

aus = 4 years

so uk can get faster degree,
