UiTM Official Website: How to Find Programmes, Faculties, and Student Resources

Updated

The official UiTM website is uitm.edu.my, the domain for Universiti Teknologi MARA (formerly ITM). Use it as the starting point when you need programme listings, faculty pages, research information, the library, or e-learning resources. The site describes itself as the place to explore academic programmes, innovative research, and international achievements, so the main navigation is organised around those areas. Always confirm you are on a uitm.edu.my address before entering any personal details or following links from search results.

Confirm you are on the official site

Before navigating, check the address bar:

  • The domain ends in uitm.edu.my.
  • Page titles and headers refer to Universiti Teknologi MARA or UiTM; older references may use ITM.
  • Search results and shared links can point to lookalike addresses, so type the domain directly or use a bookmark once you have confirmed it.

If a link claims to be UiTM but sits on a different domain, treat it as unverified and return to uitm.edu.my.

Find academic programmes

Programme information sits under the academic sections of the site. The practical route:

  1. Open uitm.edu.my.
  2. Go to the academic programmes area from the main navigation.
  3. Use the programme listing to identify the faculty or field you are interested in.
  4. Follow through to the relevant faculty page for more detail.

Expected result: you reach a programme listing or faculty page that names the course area and the faculty responsible for it. If a listing is thin on detail, the faculty page is usually the better next stop.

Locate faculties

Faculty pages are the most reliable place for information specific to a discipline — staff, programme offerings, and departmental contacts. From the homepage, use the faculties listing in the main menu rather than relying on search, because faculty names are the clearest way to narrow down a large institution. Once on a faculty page, note the faculty name exactly as written; it helps when you search for related pages later.

Reach research, library, and e-learning resources

These three resources are separate sections, and each is reached from the main menu or the site's resource links:

Resource What you will find How to get there
Research Research activity and achievements Research section from the main navigation
Library Library services and access points Library link in the site menu
E-learning Online learning resources E-learning section from the menu

The site's own keyword set lists these as distinct areas (UiTM Research, UiTM Library, UiTM learning, UiTM e-learning), which matches how the navigation is structured. If a menu link does not load as expected, use the site search with the exact section name.

Use site search and section links efficiently

For a large university site, search is faster than clicking through menus when you already know the name of a faculty, programme, or resource:

  • Search using the exact name as it appears on the site (for example, a faculty name rather than a general subject).
  • Prefer results on uitm.edu.my over third-party pages.
  • If a search result lands on an old page, navigate back to the section menu to find the current version.

Common sticking points

  • Lookalike domains: the most common risk. Verify the domain before proceeding.
  • Name confusion: pages may say UiTM, Universiti Teknologi MARA, or ITM. They refer to the same institution.
  • Deep links going stale: programme and faculty pages move. Start from the homepage section rather than an old bookmarked deep link.
  • Assuming access or cost: the site does not state that resources are free or open to everyone. Where a library or e-learning page requires credentials, that requirement will be shown on the page itself — do not assume access without checking.

Start at uitm.edu.my, confirm the domain, then use the main menu for programmes, faculties, research, library, and e-learning. That route keeps you on official pages and gets you to the right section faster than searching from outside the site.
