I was a student there in the early 2000's
My friend is a lecturer with IT faculty currently.. Student population declined compared to the good old days while students from Africa and Middle East keep on increasing.. It seems the number of local Malaysian students are dropping..
I went back to pay a visit and to my horror, the building is badly maintained.. worst than public U despite paying 3 to 4 times higher for tuition fee.. Carpark is quite empty, unlike those days that its always full, until cars have to illegally park by roadsides.. that shows student popultaion has declined..
TM is back into picture, leeching profit from MMU.. while MMU trying to stay profitable, tuition fee is increased while lecturer's pay are pathetically low..
My sister just graduated this year.. she told me Tom Dxck and Harry of all sort of qualification also can get enrolled.. Unlike those days, it is so hard to get enroll into MMU.. I got a string of A's for SPM but after compare with my classmates, my qualification is the poorers among my class
UTAR is a non-profit, and subsidised by other organizations, thus tuition fee is less, and able to attact better academic staff.. Prof C is the new President there after leaving from MMU FOE..
Not many ppl shouting hoo haa about MMU nowadays anymore..
