I'm going to IMU for my Master degree this July. Anyone know anything about this uni? I wana know more on this uni and any rooms for rent? preferably near to the uni.

I only know that they have to wear formal attire everyday. You can stay at vista commonwealth.

You can check out the notice boards in the club house of vista komanwel A, B, and C.
All very near IMU... Vista B just opposite, Vista C about 5 minutes walk.. Vista A about 10minutes walk away.
You can also go to the Student Affairs Department in IMU and ask for the accomodation list.
And yeah... you have to wear formal clothes from Monday til Friday til 6pm.

are you a student there?

I think its the best medical uni in Malaysia. So i guess it is a good uni. HAve to wear formal everyday like APIIT. Maybe bukit jalil all like that. =.= dono y..

if you have to wear formal attire doesn't mean that that is a good university..
my point of view for APIIT, it (censored)..

imu got masters meh?.............or you are referring to their pharmacy programme which strangely awards a masters as a first degree?........

as to the "best" med uni in Malaysia............no lah.......remember the majority will twin to overseas, so are not awarded the imu degree.........the local programme is nothing to shout about.........

on paper, the best ipta med uni would be um, and ipts would be monash........well established med schools and programmes.........with degrees that has a reasonable international repute..........

if you have to wear formal attire doesn't mean that that is a good university..

wht i mean is it is the best in m'sia. so i think it must be a good uni la

yeah i'm doing master there. Their postgrad is quite new. a few years old if i'm not mistaken. but the lecturers are good. my supervisor just transferred from UM to IMU.

IMU very expensive for Bachelor , but Master is quite cheap .

you mean the masters in medical sciences and Community health. these are not medical postgraduate programmes ie not specialisation programme........

The only thing i know about this uni is that its one of the unis that all the students who can't afford private colleges/unis will opt for this as their primary choice. All my friends who wants med, who failed to get jpa, all vying for places here.

you are confusing me............what do you mean???

cannot affort private college/unis (like which ones?) then go imu?????

do you have ANY idea how much the imu local programme cost?????????let along the twinning one............

Erh? Wasn't it 200k plus minus? Thats much better than 500 grand to study in the uk isn't it?

study in uk in "private" colleges/uni???????????????

well i did not say i'm doing medical specialisation in the first place. I'm doing cancer research there. So pls do not get confused. All i want to know is about this uni the living environment there and not on how expensive it is since i already accepted in. By the way, IMU offer grant for postgraduate study there so the fees is extremely cheap

Overseas uni not considered private? Are they considered government then? Or local? Heh xD

no.................the majority of the unis in uk/australia are state-funded unis, ie government unis...........the mechanism for state funding are varied, depending on the country...........

however, for "international students" ie foreign students, they charge the full tuition fees , sometimes with a profit margin on top................

before "full fees" came in, about 10 years ago, foreign students were subsidised by their taxpayers, in the 70's completely (ie need NOT pay any fees) and then partially from the 80's as the fees was gradually increased till the present level..............

a similar scenerio would be say, our ukm charging rm2k fees for locals, when the actual cost of educating a student is rm20k, the rest is subsidised, and then they take in students from say nigeria, and charge them 20k fees...............that is if the nigerians think ukm is good enough to pay 20k a year for...............

understand now?............

Ooooh! Thanks for clearing that for me
So i should use the term "those that can't afford overseas uni" go for IMU

I tell you guys, IMU is the crappiest place to ever study medicine or pharmacy. Not sure about nursing though. You'll regret for sure. The curiculum structure sucks and their using soe university in Scotland to upgrade their image. Many students who studied MPharm twinning program said the local years are normal. WHen you go to Scotland, you'll suffer like hell. Like I said, they use that univeristy (forgotten already) to brand their product.

Go Russia or somewhere else. Don't be such a ***** wanting to stay here in Malaysia because you miss your friends and family.

Just a case in mind, there are NO recreational facilities there! Not even a freaking gym. What about swimming pool. The joke here is, it's called a UNIVERSITY.
