i'm wondering
per my interview with one of the head of TARC branch,
he did mentioned that
TARC is IPTA, while
UTAR is IPTS.......
TARC is directly under the MOHE (Ministry of Higher Education)
however, it doesn't APPEARED in the website.
i think, in the context of the discussion, it doesnt really matter if it's IPTS or IPTA.
QUOTE
btw, courses offered by UTAR [IPTS] need to be accredited by LAN while the same R&R doesn't apply on TARC courses.
nope.
ALL education courses are subject to LAN's accreditation, regardless of IPTA or IPTS. same rules apply.
QUOTE
per my understanding with the LAN's rules,
any course that approved by LAN and conducted by ITPS must have the 3 LAN subjects: BM/Moral/Sejarah; all unit code with LAN xxxx
while the above rule doesn't apply on IPTA, b'coz their under goverment education department.... such as Local Uni/TARC, you won't find the subject code "LAN xxxx" in these U/C.
sorry, wrong again. in IPTA's it's called "Subjek Universiti", a requirement of about 12-14 credits to be taken for the entire course. subjects are similar if not more (kenegaraan, pengajian islam, tamadun islam, sosio-politik etc). it is also labeled differently, for example in UTM, u have "UHI 2012" for subject pengajian islam, semester 1, credits 2.
