FAQs about Studying an Engineering Degree in Malaysia
What is Engineering?
Engineering is the application of science and maths to create sustainable solutions for societal challenges.
The field of engineering is extremely broad, covering multiple fields from application of electronics (Electrical & Electronic Engineering) to building roads and buildings (Civil Engineering). Almost every product that we have in the 21st century is the result of clever and innovative engineering!
A Degree in Engineering will equip you with the necessary practical skills and technical knowledge in your chosen specialisation.
What are the minimum entry requirements for an Engineering Degree?
To pursue a Degree in Engineering, the typical entry requirements are:
- A-Level: Minimum 2Es including Maths and a relevant Science subject; or
- STPM: Minimum 2Cs including Maths and a relevant Science subject; or
- Australian Matriculation: Minimum of ATAR 65; or
- Foundation: Minimum CGPA of 2.0; or
- Relevant Diploma: Minimum CGPA of 2.0
You may also need to have a pass in English at SPM, O-Level or equivalent.
That said, the entry requirements may vary depending on the university, so be sure to do your research!
What is your education pathway if you study an Engineering Degree?
To pursue a Degree in Engineering, you need to have an SPM qualification or equivalent and a Pre-U qualification. You must also meet the minimum entry requirements of the university.
A Degree in Engineering is usually 4 years long.
Upon completing a Degree in Engineering, you will have several options:
- Enter the workforce immediately; or
- Work and pursue your studies for professional exams at the same time to be a Chartered Engineer; or
- Pursue postgraduate studies in the relevant fields
What are your career prospects with an Engineering Degree?
The standard path upon completing your Engineering Degree is to become an engineer.
Depending on your specialisation, here are some of your career options:
- Automotive Engineer
- Oil & Gas Engineer
- Petroleum Engineer
- Process Engineer
- Project Engineer
- Safety Engineer
- Telecommunications Engineer
What should you consider when choosing a university?
Different students may have different preferences when it comes to choosing the right university. Here are some questions to consider when making a decision.
- Is the institution’s Engineering course accredited by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA)?
- Is the institution’s Engineering Degree recognised by the Board of Engineers Malaysia?
- Do you understand the fees of the course, and are the costs affordable to you?
- Are you comfortable with the location of the university?
- Have you visited the campus, and do you like the campus environment and facilities?
- What support services does the institution have to help you in and beyond university?
