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!

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.

Thank you for your reply.

I was actually interested in Biomedical Science and was actively searching/enquiring/checking out those posts that's related to Biomedical Science degree and ended up with disappointment as many have claimed that it turned out to be awful. Pay wise, career wise etc. Many of them have ended up in sales line or doing something irrelevant.

Therefore, I was advised to really think carefully before making any decision.

I was quite upset that it's not doing well for the graduates in Malaysia.
Since then, I'm kinda lost and now I'm searching for the alternative plan.

Mind giving me some suggestion?  nod.gif

Any science-related job is literally useless in malaysia, except engineering.

You can pursue BM, Chem, etc... Just work somewhere else, not malaysia.

The most versatile one would be food science. The most interdisciplinary course. You need Bio, Chem, Engi

I see. Food science sounds interesting and I would be glad to know more about it but I would prefer something that's not too general. I think chemistry is one of my choice now. Thank you for your valuable suggestion  smile.gif  smile.gif

Food is not general, I would consider it to be focused. Because you are focusing on 'food' only. Besides, you would be exposed to all 3 disciplinaries, an advantage IMO

Chem is rather general.

Good luck anyway.
