What Study Areas and Programmes Does UTHM Offer?

Updated

UTHM (Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia) offers programmes across engineering, engineering technology, computer science, applied sciences, technical and vocational education, and business and management. The official portal lists these as broad study areas and points applicants to a programme list for details before applying. The portal's main intake information covers Bachelor Degree intake for Semester II, Session 2026/2027, for both Malaysian and new international undergraduate students.

Broad Study Areas Listed on the Portal

The portal groups its programme offerings into these areas:

Study area Examples of focus (as named on the site)
Civil Engineering and Built Environment Civil engineering and built environment fields
Electrical and Electronic Engineering Electrical and electronic engineering
Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering Mechanical and manufacturing engineering
Engineering Technology Engineering technology programmes
Technology Management and Business Business and technology management
Technical and Vocational Education Technical and vocational education
Computer Science and Information Technology Computer science and IT
Applied Sciences and Technology Applied sciences and technology

The site's own description also names aeronautic, vocational, education and technical courses alongside civil, mechanical, electrical, electronic, engineering, computer science and business courses.

How to Check the Exact Programme List

The portal does not publish full programme-by-programme details on the main page. Instead, it directs applicants to the LIST PROGRAMME OFFERED before applying. To use it:

  1. Open the UTHM portal (uthm.edu.my).
  2. Go to the STUDY @ UTHM section, which links to Postgraduate, Undergraduate, International Students, and Executive and Part Time Study.
  3. Open the programme list for the level you want (undergraduate or postgraduate).
  4. Confirm the specific programme, then use the Click to Apply link for the relevant intake.

Expected result: you should see the named programmes under each study area and the application entry point for your chosen intake. If a programme you expect is missing, check whether it sits under a different study area or is offered only at postgraduate level.

Undergraduate Application Points Named on the Portal

  • Bachelor Degree Intake for 2026/2027 (Malaysian students): applications for Semester II, Session 2026/2027.
  • New undergraduate international students: a separate application route for Semester II, Academic Session 2026/2027.

Both routes ask applicants to refer to the programme list before applying. The portal does not state fees, entry requirements or deadlines on the page reviewed, so confirm those through the linked application pages or the relevant faculty.

Practical Notes

  • Study area names on the portal are broad categories; the programme list is the authoritative source for individual degrees.
  • The portal also links to postgraduate study, executive and part-time study, and APEL (accreditation of prior experiential learning), so the same study areas may be available at more than one level.
  • For research-oriented readers, the portal's Research and Innovation and Journal/Publication links sit alongside the study information.
