Highlights
Why IMU?
Malaysia's first private medical college
It began in 1992 as the International Medical College, the first private medical college in the country, and became a university in 1999. That history is the point: medicine is not one of its subjects, it is its origin.
The transfer route to a foreign medical school
It launched Malaysia's first global medical partnership programme: a student starts here and can transfer to complete the degree at a partner school in Britain, Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand or the United States.
More than thirty-five partner universities
Its credit-transfer network covers more than thirty-five universities worldwide, which gives the degree more portability than most private medical schools can offer.
Health education, not only medicine
Alongside medicine it covers dentistry, pharmacy, nursing, health sciences and complementary medicine, with clinical training across three sites.
