This is based on my own experience.
In 2008, I've enrolled to a foundation course from UITM, asasi kejuteraan and to be honest, I really love the life in IPTA. I met a lot of friends, (since im staying in the dorm), played different types of sports, (they have a significant amount of sport facilities) and the lecturers are very professional indeed. I still remembered that there was this lecturer who graduated from US was really good..I always love being in her lectures.
Studying for a month before going to a college (scholarship) at UITM surely have given me a lot of sweet memories and technical points.
So, In 2010, I've finished my college studies and was enrolled to UniKL Micet, (an IPTS which I have to study a year in my scholarship agreement) and I was seriously disappointed by the fact that its totally different from what I've experienced in UiTM.
The sporting facilities are very bad and the lecturers were not up to my expectations..they were some lecturers who were holding PHD's..but most of my lecturers were around the age of 24-28; in which I've found the lectures were something that I tried to "avoid" and rather study on my own and make a group/case study with my friends.
Studying in IPTA does bring workmanship, togetherness and to some point, leadership that most IPTS lacks from. I've been in both universities and experienced it and I would rather not spend and put myself in the burden of debt just because I want to study in IPTS (unless I have no other choice).
Okay, so regarding job opportunities, in my most humble opinion, I would say being in IPTA has a higher job opportunity because most of the time in IPTA you've gotta sort and discipline yourself and most of the lecturers are very, very, very good. I'm not saying that IPTS don't have any good quality lecturers, its just that, being in IPTA it makes you more confident, disciplined and credible if you have the right friends, the right mindset and the willing to succeed.
Heck, I think the person itself after graduating from IPTA/IPTS would determine whether he/she obtain the career or the job of his/her choice.
Its like saying,
If you're from a rich or poor family,
Which has the highest opportunity to succeed in the future?
The debate will never ends.
to be fair, you shouldn't even be comparing one of the most exclusive IPTA in Malaysia with a mediocre IPTS like UniKL.........
