Calling all university and college students

THINK LONDON

to enhance employability & career success

London provides Malaysian students a truly global learning experience that will change their outlooks forever. It is designed to empower your knowledge, build your confidence and help you develop your career opportunities.

“London is an important equation in our quest to provide a holistic global experience in learning for our students. London sits in the centre of the Western world. It provides the right backdrop for our Asian, African and South American students to experience European culture and business practices. Gaining a European exposure through our programme will enhance the employability of students. Europe is a growing global influence that cannot be ignored. It is increasingly becoming the innovative heart of the world and the European economy has a strong base in the world economy. It is the wise student who will take the opportunity to add this edge for a brighter future in any career.�

Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr Lim Kok Wing President, Limkokwing University of Creative Technology Worldwide

Put London on your resume and employers will mark you as the person they seek to add value to their operations. London is an international powerhouse for finance, business, fashion, IT, branding, music and film, among other important economic sectors where you are likely to apply for employment. London will give you an expanded view of how the world outside of Malaysia functions. It is guaranteed to be a life-changing experience.

London is part of the Limkokwing Global Classroom Programme where students are encouraged to participate in so they may gain better understanding of the work discipline, business culture and vibrant creativity of an advanced economy.

This is a special intensive programme that will polish up skills all students need to excel in their working life.

We will build you into a highly employable person through this unique learning experience. Just set aside a few weeks to be in London to participate in a cross-

interact with industry professionals was priceless. I thank the Limkokwing University for this project.”

Adel Alimova, a student of Event Management from Kazakstan “I truly recommend this trip to every student. It puts a different slant to everything that you learn and you also see how differently an international city like London operates. Working on a project here allowed us to visit places like the famous museums and talk to industry people that in normal circumstances I would never get to meet.”

Hairunnissa Kesuma, a student in Professional Communication from Indonesia

London is an exhilarating pathway that will broaden your mindset and thinking skills transforming you into a successful global graduate.

discipline, inter-faculty learning experience which will allow you to interact and gain insights into a variety of industries based in London that are vital and significant for any student.

This project will build your creative thinking abilities, sharpen your business sense, inject that ‘X’ factor that makes you a competitive, success-oriented personality The project is divided into three phases where participants working in groups will focus on special tasks. In London you will be exposed to a series of industry practices ranging from film, television, public relations, advertising, publishing among others where you can learn from professionals to get the insights and the “inside secrets” that will be useful to students to complete their tasks. The groups will be required to showcase their project outcome at a special exhibition. This presentation will be useful in your job applications in the future.

Your unique London project will be endorsed in the form of a certification from the London Academy of Creativity & Innovation.

“This is so challenging that I love it. My brain has gone into hyper drive and I am absorbing everything like a sponge. It’s a big change and I am learning so many things here in London. Going to BBC was a great experience. This will give me an edge over other graduates, that I am sure of.”

Parveen Sidhu, a student in Graphic Design from Malaysia

London never sleeps – there is so much happening at every corner of the city; it lets you absorb, learn and experience the best in global education.

New skills, mental agility and culture-sensitivity needed to excel in 21st century careers

The world is in constant change. Technological advancements and social shifts in global economics have transformed the

music and festivals, making it a vibrant metropolis.

London is a very accessible city, with five international airports, efficient road network and extensive Underground. Apart from that, London proves to serve up a unique cultural experience with 200 over museums and striking architecture, each with a different story to tell.

But London still lives up to its name of being a bustling city with the numerous shopping opportunities. Be it the departmental store to designer boutiques to street markets; the choice is immense with over 40,000 shops and some 80 individual markets. The London nightlife is also a different experience. With the amount of restaurants, pubs, cinemas, theaters and nightclubs, you would be spoilt for choice.

London is one of the most vibrant, colourful and the trendiest cities in the world. There is so much to see and to do

way the world interacts, addresses issues and generates wealth. 21st century careers require higher levels of education than ever before - the kind of education that builds skills, mental agility and cultural adaptability. Educators must embrace the global perspective to add value to the learning experience and keep education relevant to this new world.

Increasingly the need for multicultural exposure has added a new dimension to the learning environment. Every student in the world should be exposed to a multicultural education because the ability to interact with other cultures is becoming a very important qualification for the hiring of human capital by industry, organizations and governments worldwide. In a globalised world those able to interact and negotiate easily with people from other countries will enjoy better career prospects. Furthermore, a multicultural education promotes a more productive society, builds respect among cultural communities and strengthens democracy.

London will change the way you look at life. It will stimulate you in ways you never imagined. The creativity of the city will keep you on a constant high. London is Europe’s richest city and a key financial area. London is without a doubt, one of the world’s most remarkable and exciting cities. Also known as the Square Mile, London has everything to offer to every individual.

Despite the population of over seven million, more than thirty per cent of London is made up of green space, making it larger than any city of its size in the world. An opportunity for strolls in the parks, relaxation and sporting activities seem endless. Its embracement of diverse culture is evidently reflected through the various cuisines, shops,

that everyday is different. It’s a wonderful blend of traditional values and modern cultures. London is a world that is all mixed together. From the historical architecture of Buckingham Palace and The Tower of London, to the contemporary settings of the South Bank, to the hustle and bustle of Oxford Circus and the tranquillity of Hyde Park, London is everything to everybody. There is always something to look at and always something to do.

Bustling commercial nucleus for Europe

London is a global commercial centre with more foreign banks than any other city in the world. There are over a quarter of a million businesses located in this city and over 100 of Europe’s top 500 companies have their headquarters in the region. It is a city where over 300 languages are spoken by people from over 90 countries. London has one of the largest and most diverse institutions of higher learning in the world. It is fast becoming the knowledge capital of the world.

A fashion capital of the world

In fashion London is an inspiration for many designers. A fashion capital of the world designers look to London for new ideas and new trends. A walk down the Sloanies of The Kings Road, to the Gothic Chic of Camden Town and the Retro Cool of Hoxton Square reveals the extent trendsetters will go to, to make that fashion statement. The creative mix of fashion is inspired by the mix of people; with over 90 different countries represented you are never an outsider in this awe-inspiring city. London Fashion Week is world famous as a gateway into the industry.

Dazzling lifestyle

A thriving social life is part and parcel of living in London.

Its location in the posh end of Piccadilly makes the Limkokwing campus the perfect base for students to hop across to nearby locations for their research in business, design, fine arts, fashion, retail management, architecture, interior design, tourism, animation and multimedia.

Bond Street, for example, is home to famous fashion houses that are inspiring with their high-end creative range. Ritz Carlton and Hilton Park Lane are great for those keen to get ahead with tourism related studies. Soho is the heart of London’s creative industry where most of the famous production houses conduct their animation, special effects, really high quality creative content that you see on film and television.

Limkokwing London A central location, close to all best places of London

Limkokwing London is situated in Piccadilly, close to Buckingham Palace, just opposite the Green Park near Old Bond Street, St James Street and South Audley Street.

The campus is a magnificent historical building built more than two centuries ago. It has a colourful history as the famous St James Club that was patronized by distinguished members of the European royalty, members of the British diplomatic corps, well-known writers as well as guests from the Far East. Today it is a cherished monument of 18th century English architecture, a heritage building that

Industry projects and internship provide unequalled experiences

Industry collaboration is a unique part of a Limkokwing education. We work closely with famous names like Eric Way, who is a top fashion designer in London, and other well-known commercial brands like Laura Ashley, the Corus chain of hotels and BBC among others. In London being close to the top-end of all the main economic activities gives us the best opportunity to connect our students to industry-relevant experiences that can end in entrepreneurship.

Interested in collaborating with Studymax?

For article submissions, adverts and any solutions you think we would be interested in, contact us at: E-8-6 Block E Megan Avenue 1 189 Jalan Tun Razak 50400 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia Line: +603 - 2181 2007 Fax: +603 - 2333 8899 E-mail: info@studymax.com.my www.studymax.com.my Find out our website by scanning the QR code with your smartphone’s QR code reader

Note’ When conceiving the idea of Studymax, we envisaged a means of communication between students and education institutes made direct, and that’s where Studymax – the magazine came into fruition. Society these days though one needs to stay connected on all levels, what with real time telecommunication and the vast amount of information available to us at just a click of a button, so Studymax, we figured needed to fulfill all these criteria. The way to do this, after delving into the issue and what was at that time, available, was through a multitude of different forums. What better way than to take this seedling of direct communication and expand it? Why stop at a magazine when we could become a one stop centre? A depot of choices when it comes to which school one wants to attend?

To see this vision through,the CEO of “Studymax” and “Livmax Global”, Mr.Kambiz Mobaraki and myself as the CEO of Studymax’s Media Producer, “UPRO Design” functioning as the Executive Manager of Studymax, decided to pool the respective strengths of our organizations. With the shared purpose of ensuring Studymax’s robust growth, we knew that the creativity afforded by UPRO Design and the solid foundation of Livmax Global would confirm Studymax’s exponential growth.

As firm believers in the power of technology, our team find ourselves constantly fascinated by the ever changing socio-economic landscape such facilities as the internet and telecommunications has afforded us as a species. There is a pace we must be in tune with so as to keep our competitive edge, thus we believe that in this constantly shrinking world where time zones are of no big consequence any longer, pupils and scholars everywhere must find the balance between technological know-how and cultural savoir-faire. By investing in the Malaysian education scene and encouraging our young to study in this land, to mix and mingle with each other, we are in fact equipping the next generation with a double edged sword; that of first-class academics and that of humility through a shared purpose with their peers from all over this earth of ours.

That’s why, after years of comprehensive research we believe that Studymax has found the ideal way to connect the knowledge-desiring abroad and locally with the knowledge-bearing here in Malaysia. Through mutual discussion and co-operation, Studymax along with our corporate partners illuminate upon relevant information for those that are interested in forwarding their educational careers here. Parents, spoilt for choice when it comes to which direction they should guide their children to take, also turn to us for holistic information so they feel assured that the institute and course them and their children settle upon is, in fact the best fit for their child.

We strive to offer the best solutions to one of the most important crossroads of everybody’s life: our education. We do this through our articles, through the educational organizations’ articles, we explore living here in Malaysia as a student through Studymax’s eyes, students’ eyes and the education institutes’ eyes. Collectively at Studymax, we have taken this seedling and turned it into a very well rounded depot of information to suit your studying in Malaysia needs.

Melaka Campus For many school leavers, the quest for a Bachelor’s degree is made harder due to the fact that on top of other considerations such as cost and living arrangeMultimedia University (MMU’s) Vice President (Academic), the macro environment.

“First of all, students must realise that the reason they get a degree is to work for employers that are available within the region where they intend to work.” be Information Technology (IT).”

“IT is a field that deals with the creation of solutions,” explains Prof. Ong. “The footprint of IT applications is simply enormous. Every sector uses it. In manufacturing, for example, IT combined with the proper equipment allows for automation, better workflow, as well as improved quality control.”

The application of IT doesn’t stop there. For every new business or firms, computers and the ability to access the Internet are absolute necessities. Not only does the Internet allow firms to coordinate their work better, but structures like websites and applications for mobile devices allow businesses to take advantage of new opportunities and reach more customers.

“These hard and soft infrastructures need to be maintained,” Prof. Ong elaborates. “As your business grows, your hardware and software need to be improved. As you become more profitable, the higher your risk of being targeted by cyber criminals. This requires computer security technologies.

All these solutions and infrastructure require IT knowledge to maintain and improve”.

MMU’s approach of preparing its students for the real job market perhaps explains why MMU’s tracer studies have consistently revealed that more than 90 percent of its graduates secure employment within six months of completing their studies. In recognition of MMU’s efforts, the Malaysian Qualifications Agency, in its 2009 Rating System for Institutions of Higher Learning (SETARA) placed MMU in the Excellent (Tier-5) rank. This firmly cements MMU’s position among the top universities in Malaysia.

In MMU, Information Technology is divided into several specific areas of study: • • • • •

Information Systems Engineering Software Engineering Multimedia Systems Computer Science Software Engineering and Games Design

• Data Communications and Networking • Security Technology and Artificial Intelligence

Multimedia University is actively pursuing collaboration with the industry that include multinational corporations such as Microsoft, IBM, Sun, Cisco, Intel, Novell, Shell, BT, Celcom, CA and Motorola. Through such partnerships, our staff and students are able to leverage on the latest technologies driving the global IT scenes.

KDU University College

Inspiring students to Greater Heights…

Over the 28 years since it has been established, KDU University College has always been on the forefront of shaping the minds of young people; making sure that not only do our students achieve academic success, but also educating them to be responsible and contributing members of our society, driving their dreams and inspiring them to greater heights.

As a testament of the consumers’ faith in the KDU brand, KDU was awarded Silver for the Education & Learning category in the 2011 Putra Brand Awards. The Putra Brand Awards is a recognition and brand valuation exercise which measures brands by consumer preference, and this is the second consecutive year that KDU have been accorded with the Silver award.

Diane Vidot

KDU’s focus in producing work-ready graduates who are grounded with a strong foundation in character and knowledge in their specialisation is reflected in our range of programme offerings, especially our brand new homegrown degree programmes, as it is designed with industry feedback and are very market-relevant.

Here at KDU, we believe that learning goes beyond the classroom and as such, all our diplomas and degrees have the industrial training component to ensure students learn on-the-job and apply theories to real life. It is important for students to be able to learn hands-on in the industry itself and apply what they learnt in the classroom – not only for the experience, but also for them to gauge the expectations of the industry. It is experiences like these that would greatly contribute to the development of confident and savvy graduates who will prove to be an asset anywhere they go, and ensure they remain relevant to what the different industry needs.

KDU also has a dedicated Job Placement centre as well as strategic industry partnerships to place students for internships as well as assist them in snagging their dream job upon graduation. Like us in the education industry, our strategic industry partners would also have the opportunity to teach and train our students to become outstanding examples of what a marketable graduate should be. Together, our focus will be to produce graduates who are career-ready and who will be a valuable asset of our nation’s human capital.

PETALING JAYA, 13 September 2011 Renowned for its exciting approach to higher education, excellent double major programmes, beautiful campus and strong community spirit, Keele University is ranked within the top 50 of two of the major league tables: The Times Good University Guide 2011 (42nd) and The Complete University Guide (44th), and is a partner university of KDU University College.

Under this collaboration, KDU offers its first dual major business degree from Keele University.

Many of the challenges that face the world today demand an interdisciplinary approach. This 3+0 dual major business degree, which gives students the option to combine business management with either finance, human resource management or marketing, will ensure they have all-round education.

With a curriculum that incorporates unmatched business knowledge, as well as hands-on experience and connections with industry leaders, students will acquire critical-thinking abilities and business skills that will ensure your employability in a competitive employment market.

Business Management has a distinctive set of teaching and research interests. KDU and Keele believe that the most productive way of studying Business Management is to take a critical perspective on what goes on in organizations, along with a thorough exploration of the ‘nuts & bolts’ of fundamental business skills and knowledge.

For this reason, this 3+0 programme’s teaching and research moves between the basic techniques and practices used in particular functions of management (such as accounting, marketing, human resource management) and a concern with understanding these techniques within their given historical and cultural contexts.

The strength of the Business Management & Finance course is that it offers students the opportunity to gain a firm grounding in accountancy and finance whilst allowing them to tailor their studies to their individual requirements and interests through a series of options in the second and third years.

Under the Business Management & Human Resource Management majors, students will learn about the world of work and employment while studying a critical social science-based programme, which will equip them for a wide range of career options. Students undertaking these double major will encounter highly interesting debates on the value of work, motivating employees, ethical standards applied to employment practices and so forth.

Students who are interested in pursuing the Business Management & Marketing double major will be glad to know that the Marketing principal of this course offers a unique training in the use of marketing by a range of organizations, including businesses and the non-profit or public sector.

Whilst covering the basic principles of marketing and management, the wide range of option enables students to tailor the degree to suit their own interests. Marketing is a research-led topical course that will develop students’ intellectual and analytical skills as well as giving them a unique understanding of marketing in a variety of settings.

First Class Honours Keele Business Management & Finance graduate, Diane Vidot from Seychelles, said, ‘I loved the fact that KDU and this course have made me more independent and confident. The challenges I’ve experienced so far, have taught me so much! I’ve made many friends from all over the world and gotten to know

just as many cultures which I find very interesting.”

Speaking about her future plans, she continued, “I come from a country where tourism is a booming industry, and I believe my degree in Business Management & Finance and the knowledge I’ve gained in KDU will help me go far when I embark on my career in my home country.”

Business degrees at KDU provide students with not just the textbook theories and concepts but real-life simulated experiences to help them apply what they have learnt in class to actual problem-solving practices.

Soft-skills like communication, leadership and presentation skills are also taught as supplementary subjects to their academic studies and it is these skills that provide the best competitive edge for its students to excel in the employment market.

Despite a reputation of having a tough syllabus and difficult assessments, the Business School is the one of the largest school at KDU University College and its popularity continues to grow.

Together with the KDU’s top-ranking foreign university partners, the Business School ensures students of globally-recognised qualifications that are equivalent to those awarded by the partners’ home campuses

Intake for the Keele University programmes is now open.

Established in 1983, KDU University College has been an important landmark in the development of private tertiary education and it aspires to grow in reputation and quality. As a testament of the consumers’ faith in the KDU brand, the university college was awarded Silver for the Education & Learning category in the Putra Brand Awards for two consecutive years. The education institution is also building a new 21.7 acre campus in Glenmarie, set to be completed in 2014.

Why study in Malaysia?

With its arrays of cultures, its long history of nurturing its education system on an international level, its intoxicating food, lively social scene and its already large community of international students one has to beg the question,

Why not study in Malaysia?

“it is apparent in Malaysian social culture that she has not lost sight of her roots and traditions, making life here a beautiful whirlwind of the old and the new, the assimilated and the independently confident” With temperatures hitting 30 degrees centigrade and with sunny beach weather in abundance, Malaysia truly is a tropical paradise that gives its residents a fresh look on life every day. Clustered amongst the lush tropical forests and hills of this land are cosmopolitan cities bustling with adventure around every corner.

In most corporate, educational and even social sectors of Malaysia, English is utilized as the main medium of interaction. This is one of the main reasons people from all over find that Malaysia has become the natural choice when deciding on a place to learn, to live and even to settle. As sophisticated and street-smart as Malaysia is and as easy as it is to communicate with people both local and foreign, it is apparent in Malaysian social culture that she has not lost sight of her roots and traditions, making life here a beautiful whirlwind of the old and the new, the assimilated and the independently confident. As a consequence, Malaysia, and especially Kuala Lumpur has a booming expatriate community that live, work and have even opened up businesses. Walk down the busy street of Changkat Bukit Bintang and you will see many eateries opened up by Italian and French restaurateurs, visit the artistic halls of Central Market and view the authentic handicrafts on display by Pakistani entrepreneurs.

Residents revel in the positive energy that flows so easily here, aided always by that famous Malaysian sunshine.

With more than 100,000 international students from all over the world, those that alight on the shores of this peninsular nation soon find themselves coming into contact with all kinds of cultures. Students, expats and locals equipping each other with knowledge and smiles that eventually disintegrates the notion of ‘the other’ and instills values more associated with unity, with acceptance rather than tolerance.

This multi-ethnic experience benefits all of us in that putting aside any differences we have enables to us to work collectively in achieving goals for the betterment of society, it enables us to better focus our energy on issues that are far more pressing so as to improve our quality of life, no matter what country we hail from.

Apart from this amazing aspect of studying in Malaysia, however, are the other practical factors that come into play; many overseas Universities have chosen to open branches on Malaysian soil. This has enabled a vast amount of students to get an education at such prestigious institutes such as Monash or Nottingham University without the hefty price tag an education in Australia or the UK may incur. And if a tenure in Asia is not enough to fill your curiosity, this concept makes it easy for pupils to spend a semester or two at a sister campus dotted on another continent, affording students a twofold culturally enriched university experience.

Malaysian Education Institutes pride themselves on taking a hassle-free and market-relevant approach to preparing students for what comes after they graduate.

That brings us to the freedom in affordability when it comes to cost of living in even the uber cosmopolitan capital city of Malaysia - Kuala Lumpur. One finds life very comfortable in Kuala Lumpur with a budget of about 500USD – 700USD, other cities and towns in Malaysia are even more budget friendly. Being based in Malaysia makes it easy to enjoy a high quality of life without taking too much of a toll on one’s expenses; take into account not only the material factors of this claim but also the little joys in life such as the friendly faces and cultural sights to visit and learn from. Students looking to study overseas and parents contemplating sending their offspring somewhere, hoping to be comforted by the fact that their children are in a constructive learning environment will find that Malaysia does not disappoint.

With a steadily growing number of International students every year and with numbers expecting to hit 200,000 in the year 2020, the Malaysian government, as well as the private institutions here have made it their responsibility offer education that is not only steeped in quality but is widely recognized the world over and accepted as a solid foundation for the corporate world.

The Malaysian authorities have placed stipulations such as the ‘Private Education Institutions Act 1996’ to ensure distinction, and knowing that as time was never meant to be static, so too, guidelines were never meant to be static, thus they continue to review these regulations every few years. Private Malaysian institutions are working in a multitude of ways to internationalize the education systems practiced here; such instances include opening new campuses in other countries so as to present students in those respective countries an opportunity to complete a twinning program with Malaysia. With these strategies opted by the authorities and institutions of Malaysia, students and graduates are secured in the fact that the diploma, degrees and certificates obtained here are recognized almost anywhere they would like to settle in today’s shrinking world where countries of residence can change at the drop of a hat.

Many institutes have chosen to work with professors that have experience in their particular field, therefore it is not uncommon to see former CEOs and other team leaders now conducting tutorials and exchanging ideas passionately about their sphere of discipline in lecture halls with groups of pupils. It is because the school of thought here is centered around being ready for the corporate domain and being able to apply knowledge not only theoretically but practically, that has ensured Malaysia one of the premier positions in such fields of academics such as Hospitality, Islamic Finance and Hotel Management.

A place as vibrant and colorful as it is disciplined in its hallowed halls of schooling, where times are moving forward and yet takes its time in reminiscing and keeping its past alive, this is the Malaysia of today.

An ideal oasis of creativity, innovation and growth; Malaysia - opportunity and guidance are her constant reinventions and strengths. Under this wing of guidance will you find the education and tools you need to flourish personally and professionally, to solve with panache the obstacles you may face and to ride high with confidence in the 21st century landscape of the global market.
