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!

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.

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

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).

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?

Thank you and I shall check it out to see which fit me best. Thanks again!

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

Good to know that! I shall look into it! Thanks and really appreciate for giving me such idea.

Right. My chemistry is better than physics that makes me quite reluctant to go for physics compare to chemistry that I afraid I will not be able to cope well. Also, I have actually less interest in Engineering. Thanks and appreciate for your kind response which gradually direct me to what suit me the most.

Wow! This is an eye opener for me! Radiographer is very interesting for me
