Hello everyone. I'm a newbie here so sorry if I have some mistakes using Lowyat Forum.
I'm a STPM leaver. I'm planning to study biomedical science degree at UTAR. I hope to hear some advice from people who are studying / have studied it.

1. Is Biomedical science degree at UTAR good?

2.  Do other universities or other countries recognize it? If I can do my master, where can I do it other than UTAR?

3. Do you know any UTAR biomedical science degree graduates? And what are they doing after graduated?

4. I want to prepare myself before I can enter university so I'm thinking to read some topics related with the degree. What are the reference do you recommend and use it in your university?

Thank you.

If not mistaken, most of the course in Malaysia is considered as honours degree. This is important only if you plan to further your masters or PhD. Overseas uni do recognise the degree from malaysia. You can continue your masters in any local or private uni, most of them offer. If you get first class honours, some university allow you to straight go for PhD.

The salary depends on the jobs, MLT normally has lower salary compare to underwriters, sales representatives.

Personally, I like to do research, that's why I choose this degree. Some of my friends did struggle when looking for jobs, as there are not many choices. Malaysia is not that well-developed in research and it's a disadvantage.

Hey there. Thanks for your advice.
I see... May I know what you career is ?
I'm considering to choose this degree as I like the scientific theory behind it.  Conducting lab tests is challenging for me. But I think I can't escape from it since I'm in the science stream.
you are welcome. I have been working as research assistant for some time. i'm going to do my masters soon.
if you choose this degree, you may find that some of the things are different from what you think. all the best to you
