As
the first private university in Malaysia, Multimedia
University (MMU) developed the
pioneer model for the successful establishment of private
universities in the nation, paving the way for the growth of
the private tertiary education sector. As the university at
the heart of the MSC, MMU also serves as a catalyst for the
development of the high tech ICT industry of the nation,
parallel to the Silicon Valley-Stanford model in the United
States.
Multimedia University, Cyberjaya Campus
Growing to over 20,000 students in 12 short years, MMU has
achieved much in a relatively short period of time. The
university runs in two campuses, its original campus in the
historical city of Melaka, and the campus in Cyberjaya that
was opened by the former Prime Minister, Tun Dr Mahathir
Mohamed. It has produced 22,820 graduates in its time, and a
recent survey demonstrates that 93% of these secure
employment within 6 months of the completion of studies. It
has also grown an outstanding pool of international students
numbering at 4,200 from 75 countries. Establishing itself as
a major player in research and development, and maintaining
excellent ties with the industry through collaborations and
research partnerships, MMU now hosts 13 Research Centres to
date, focusing in the niche areas of nanotechnology,
microsystems, biometrics, virtual reality, microwave and
telecommunications, engineering, photonics, advanced
robotics and business.
