A public engineering university in the far north

Overview
Public engineering at low fees — and know the trade-off
Perlis is Malaysia's smallest state, on the Thai border, and the trip to Kuala Lumpur is a long one. Against that: public-university fees, a cost of living well below the capital, and a genuine specialism in microelectronic and precision engineering. We say it plainly so you can choose knowing both sides.

Highlights
Why UniMAP?
A microelectronics specialism
Microelectronic engineering is a standalone degree here rather than a track inside electronic engineering, and it plugs straight into Malaysia's semiconductor industry.
Six engineering faculties out of seven
Electronic, Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, Chemical and Intelligent Computing are each a faculty in their own right, not departments inside a single engineering school.
A diploma-to-degree route
The Centre of Diploma Studies runs six engineering diplomas, so a student can enter on a school certificate and progress to a bachelor's inside the same university.
