Hello! Anyone could advise if the biomedical science degree from UTAR is recognise ? What are the graduates doing ? I am planning to go for this course but not sure if the university is right ? P/S: the budget suits me the best and also the environment. (Kampar Campus). I just would like to confirm its value. Please kindly advise!

There's a thread dedicated to this...TBH, as long as the degree is accredited by MQA, it's recognised by local employers. I believe you know what would the grads be doing already since you're asking your question in this thread. You can also read this thread from another section of the forum to see different views.

I just want to mention that I never ever have a problems to find a job after biomedical degree.

What type of job?

With current and future job prospect.. my suggestion is to get into a skill-related courses
If you like health sciences area.. go into physiotherapy.. or optometrist.. or dentistry.. pharmacist.. etc.

Yes. I would like to know what type of job too. Mind to share ?

How about Chemistry Degree? Anybody studied in Utar before for this degree and its prospect? I can see only public university and Utar is the only private uni that offering degree course for chemistry.

What you intend to do with a chemistry degree?

Unless u r a top student, or else just forget it.

Most of my friends ended up as sales or moved to banking industry.

Same, either in marketing, sales, quality, or continue to further Master/PHD to be lecturer

Well, yeah... Degree is pretty useless nowadays.. 😂

MBA is what differentiate job seekers now

Yes, only if u're working in corporate.. Or kinna useless..

Even phd is useless.. Tooooo many in the market..

Initially, I was really interested in doing Biomedical Science for (haematology, pathology, dna, lab skills etc) and many have suggested not to go into this field. And then someone advised me to consider on chemistry to become a chemist but it looks like all are not doing good in Malaysia. Which science degree would you recommend that's worth the 'value' if I don't mind of the interest of study, only the future prospect.


P/S: sales job is a no no for me

I'd say a physics degree but I'm really not sure if it's a degree that's highly regarded in Malaysia too. With a physics degree, you can do engineering jobs as well as IT jobs provided you can show them you have the skills for the latter, not to mention the traditional job like physicists(in R&D and healthcare).

actually, with a chemistry degree you can also do engineering. there are many chemist grads in my company whose position title is engineer.

Aww.. that's interesting. May I know how long did they take to become engineer from a chemist ? Does it require other certification or just experience?
That means in Malaysia, being a chemist can still survive aka have a decent pay ?

Sadly, many have suggested no to physics as well (in Malaysia).
