About the University | University of Reading Malaysia

Study at a brand new campus with outstanding learning and leisure facilities.

Our brand new campus at EduCity in Iskandar Puteri, is an architecturally stunning campus environment, perfect for studying and networking.

Located just 40 minutes away from Singapore International Airport and only 20 minutes from Senai International Airport in Johor, the campus covers an area of 27,000 square meters and is an integrated, self-contained space that combines flexible teaching, research and learning spaces with inspiring social spaces. The design for the campus made the finals in the World Architecture Festival Awards in 2013.

The Heartspace

The central parkland space between the two buildings, came from the idea to emulate the open, natural space of the University of Reading's Whiteknights campus in the UK, but to translate this for a tropical setting. The Heartspace is now a plant-filled space for students to relax and socialise. There is also an amphitheatre for talks, live music and events.
