As the COVID-19 continues to impact the economic and social sector of almost all countries in the world, furthering education abroad may appear to be harder than expected for Malaysian students. While many dreams of attaining a high quality education in countries like the UK, US and Australia, the international borders are closed. As for Australia, the government has currently implemented travel restrictions for international students.
If you have your heart set on studying abroad, you will be glad to know that the number of global campuses are increasing in Malaysia. We have foreign branch campuses from UK, Australia and China sprouting rapidly in Malaysia.
You will relish the similar education experience in your own home country with a lower living expenses and miscellaneous expenditure. In this article, we are sharing with you the top 5 reasons why you should study in a global campus and the salient features that global campuses have.
1. High Quality Education & Syllabus
Australia is recognized for its excellent higher education system with 11 universities listed in the top 200 of the 2021 QS World University Rankings. If you are looking to enrol yourself in an all inclusive Australian syllabus-based education in Malaysia, you will be glad to know that UOW Malaysia KDU is an extension of the University of Wollongong (UOW) Australia. UOW Australia is notable for being one of the best research-intensive universities in the world and students in Malaysia will get to relish the full experience of what UOW Australia has to offer here.

2. Student Transfer Programme
In every global campus, there are credit transfer programmes available. UOW Malaysia KDU are no exception. UOW Malaysia KDU allow students to join the credit transfer programme or dual award programme where students can commence their studies in Malaysia and transfer to other UOW campus situated within Australia, Dubai or Hong Kong. Students will also get to enjoy a 25% waiver off their international tuition fee when they transfer. The best part is that upon completion of studies, students will receive an award from UOW and UOW Malaysia KDU. If you are worried that study transfer programmes may be more demanding in terms of syllabus, you can most certainly expect a smooth transition and the exact same syllabus.
3. Facilities and Academic Infrastructure
Facilities and academic infrastructure are vital parts of the learning process. To a great extent, it affects our learning mood. Before enrolling in a university, students may think that these are trivial issues. But imagine having a campus located in the middle of nowhere with limited academic infrastructure.

There is hot kitchen, bakery kitchen, wine lab and ice carvery studio. Wish you could learn photography? There is a photography studio. Dream of becoming a radio jockey?

UOW Malaysia KDU has got the best of academic infrastructures for both art and science students.
4. Professional Development
Upon graduation, you want to be able to have reached your full potential. Universities serves as a platform that helps you grow and mould you to be a contributing citizen. Unfortunately, there are also many universities that are driven by profits and are overproducing low quality graduates.

From the time of its establishment, their primary aim is to produce graduates that are fully equipped with commendable skills.
