Hi Muhammad Muizzuddin!
In terms of job prospects, some of the top recruiters for Marine Biologists in Malaysia are Aquaria KLCC, WWF and The Top Komtar Penang. You can refer here for more information on pursuing a career in Marine Biology.
As for studies pathways, we suggest pursuing a Pre-University course in any relevant discipline such as A-Levels or a Foundation in Science then go for a Degree in Marine Biology. You can check out Universiti Malaysia Terengganu and Xiamen University Malaysia Campus for degree courses in Marine Biology.
Do remember that it is important to have passed at least 6 SPM subjects with a grade C to pursue this course. Also, on top of that, you would need a decent grade in Foundation in Science/A-Levels. Here is a guide to study Marine Biology in Malaysia.
If you are interested, AIMST University and International University of Malaya-Wales both offer Foundation in Science. If you are keen on applying, just fill in the bar on the right and one of our counselors will get in touch with you.
Hope this helps!

Hi Jenath,
We do not handle UPNM's admission, nor do we know the specific entry requirements for their courses. We always obtain our information from valid sources and in this case, UPNM's official portal. Here are the entry requirements for their Master's programme: http://www.upnm.edu.my/index.php?req=100
We understand that it is not specific to Marine Technology but this is the only entry requirement they have. Perhaps this is all you need to achieve to be able to apply.
Hope this helps.
