University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus (UNMC)

[superdupree]

Hi, I decided to kickstart this thread as I noticed many showing keen interest in studying/applying for UNMC.

Since I'm on my 4 month-long summer break so why not? (Yes! We enjoy a 4-month long summer break in UNMC-similar to the UK break)

Anyway, to introduce myself, I just finished my 1st year in Mechanical Engineering in UNMC and I am very actively involved in clubs and societies in uni. So I think I can give a fair bit of opinion on my uni.

So, ASK ME ASK ME

And oh yeah, the best thing about UNMC certificates is that no none whatsoever MALAYSIA is written on it! It is signed and certified by the same people as the UK campus one! Therefore our certificate is very very worth it!

Cost of living and rent also included when I mean 1 million RM. To study any course at all in UK, if don't have RM 1 million in savings, don't ever try.

Even cost of living and rent included?

If so, thanks for correcting me

yes

one year tuition in notts
14260 x 3 x 5(in fact current exchange rate 4.9 only) =
8000 quids per year(which is generous for nottingham's low cost of living) x 3=

total cost including flights all <350000.Sorry 1 million is overestimate la..its not that expensive to study in UK

The study environment here is very very independent. Little to zero spoon feeding. On first day of lecture, the lecturers will inform us what is required by this module, the learning outcomes and etc. Personally I like this kinda study environment as I am free to design my own timetable and be involved in other activities.

We have a mixture of both local and foreign lecturers. Half half I would say.

Security on campus is no problem! I used to stay on campus. For the past 2 years. But next year I;ve to live off campus as there is a change in policy. Only newcomers stand a chance for on campus accomodation.

What do you want to know about Civil? I'll see if i can help provide.

I will start my Civil Eng at Nott this Sept If I'm not mistaken, Civil Eng in UNMC is still quite new and currently is not accredited by BEM. This is because this year will be the first graduated batch(No worries because by the time we graduate, UNMC's Civil Eng will already be accredited).
