UK & Malaysia Campus Mobility and Transfer
We provide flexible options for students who wish to spend part of their studies on our campus in Reading UK and enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime global experience.
The university provides students with a range of flexible options allowing them to spend part of their studies at our award-winning campus in Reading UK, which is only 22 minutes by train from London. This makes the university the ideal choice for students who are interested in a global overseas experience, knowing the university is there to support them.
It's also worth noting that there is a wider range of degree options available on the UK campus compared with the Malaysia campus; hence, it may be possible to transfer to another but related programme within the same school.
Additionally, any student of the UoRM International Foundation Programme has the opportunity to transfer to the UK to undertake a wide range of degrees, including all those offered at the Malaysia campus, plus Economics, International Relations, Construction Management, Food Marketing, Agricultural Management, and many options of Business and Finance degrees.
Students should also be aware that there may be implications related to professional accreditation in Malaysia for students wishing to undertake mobility and transfer; our team will be happy to advise students accordingly. Students who undertake mobility and transfer will be required to pay international student fees for study on the UK campus; however, a discount is available for students from the Malaysia campus.
