What can you study or find there?
The site organises its academic offering into three audiences:
- Undergraduate studies
- Postgraduate studies
- International study routes
Beyond admissions, the site also publishes research information (institutes, centres of excellence, grants and funding, journals and publications, and a digital repository), campus life, and student affairs content such as facilities, funding and scholarships, and career development.
How to check admission and application results
If you have applied to a UniMAP undergraduate programme, the site directs applicants to the Offer Letter System to check application status. The homepage has carried announcements of results for specific intakes — for example, the announcement for Semester 2 of Academic Session 2021/2022, which opened on 21 March 2022 for UniMAP diploma graduates applying to bachelor programmes. The site also lists an application entry for undergraduate studies for Semester 2, Academic Session 2026/2027.
To use this route, you need to be an applicant to the relevant intake; the result is then checked through the Offer Letter System rather than by email or a general search.
Key reference pages for students
The site's reference section points to:
- Frequently Asked Questions
- Academic Calendar
- Academic Guidebook
- Student Dress Code
These are the pages to consult for term dates, academic rules and campus expectations before or during enrolment.
A note on the site itself
The homepage carries a notice that the UniMAP portal and its content were being closed and transitioned to other platforms, with a full closing date of 30 August 2023. It also notes that the university's main database was upgraded from Oracle 11GR2 to Oracle 19C in September 2022. If a link on the main site does not resolve, check whether the content has moved to one of the newer platforms rather than assuming the programme or service no longer exists.
Bottom line
UniMAP is a public engineering-and-technology-focused university in Perlis with undergraduate, postgraduate and international study routes. Use unimap.edu.my for admissions, the Offer Letter System for application results, and the academic calendar and guidebook for study rules.
