Study in Türkiye Education Fair 2026 | 30 April 2026

A total of 44 students from Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) across various academic programmes participated in the Study in Türkiye Education Fair 2026 held at G Hotel Gurney today.

The programme served as an important platform for students to explore international education opportunities, scholarship pathways, and academic mobility prospects offered by universities in Türkiye.

Through this exposure, UniMAP students were able to gain first-hand information on study pathways, scholarship opportunities, admission requirements, and the diverse academic ecosystem in Türkiye, particularly in strategic and emerging fields of study.

This participation reflects UniMAP’s continuous commitment towards strengthening students’ global exposure and encouraging them to seize international academic and professional opportunities as part of their educational journey.

We hope this meaningful engagement will inspire more students to broaden their horizons and pursue global learning experiences.

🌍Strengthening Global Education Partnerships | 30 April 2026

Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) continues to expand its international footprint by strengthening strategic collaborations with educational institutions in China. Through a recent delegation visit to a pre-university programme centre, UniMAP reaffirmed its commitment to broadening global education access and attracting high-quality international students to pursue their academic journey in Malaysia.

A key highlight of the discussion was the introduction of the International 1+3 Programme Pathway, where students will complete one year of pre-university studies in their home country before continuing with three years of degree studies at UniMAP. This structured pathway ensures academic continuity and a holistic learning experience for future global talents.

The collaboration also focuses on high-demand academic fields aligned with future industry needs, including: Artificial Intelligence (AI), Automation Technology, Electronic Network Design, International Economics and New Media.

This initiative marks another important milestone in UniMAP’s internationalisation journey, further positioning the university as a progressive and globally competitive higher education institution committed to academic excellence and innovation.
