Curtin University Malaysia is the Malaysian campus of Curtin University, a public university based in Australia.[7] It is the university's largest campus outside of Australia with a total area of 1,200-hectare (3,000-acre) comprising academic and residential blocks.[8] It offers undergraduate and postgraduate programs in various fields of commerce, engineering, computational sciences, humanities and health sciences.[9][10] It also offers foundational courses and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) among other higher degree by research programs.[10][11][12] It is named after John Curtin, a prominent Prime Minister of Australia during World War II from 1941 to 1945.[13]
Curtin University, which has its main campus based in Perth, is the largest university in the state of Western Australia with 58,607 students globally in 2022.[14][15] Students have options to transfer or study abroad to other Curtin campuses in Perth, Kalgoorlie, Singapore, Dubai and Mauritius as the same units are studied across its campuses.[16][17] In additional, students from other universities and Curtin campuses can also apply to study abroad at Curtin Malaysia.[18] As of 2022, the campus enrolled 1,937 students.
Under the "One Curtin" model, the campus is operated directly under Curtin University and degrees conferred by Curtin University to Curtin Malaysia students are equivalent to Curtin proper.[19][18] The university follows the same academic calendar as Curtin Australia and uses the same curriculum, study materials and examinations. The university campus is accredited by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA)[8] and tuition rates are significantly lower than of international students studying in its main campus in Perth.[20] The university also conducts research at its Malaysian campus.[21]
In Australia, the university is known for having high employer satisfaction rates.[22][23][24] According to the 2022 Employer Satisfaction Survey published by the Australian Government's QILT, the university received the highest overall employer satisfaction (89.7%) among all universities in Australia.[25] The university also ranks within the top 200 universities according to the Quacquarelli Symonds and U.S. News university ranking publications,[26][27] while ranking somewhat lower on others.[28][29][30]
