How to narrow down your choice

  1. Start with the field you want — for example, if you are interested in law, the Faculty of Law and the Melaka campus are the relevant starting points; if you are interested in cinematic arts, look at the Faculty of Cinematic Arts on the Cyberjaya campus.
  2. Check the campus — not every field is offered at both campuses, so confirm the campus listing before applying.
  3. Confirm the level — foundation, diploma, degree, and postgraduate offerings differ by faculty, so check that your intended level is available for your chosen field.
  4. Use the full programme list — the website provides a full list of programmes offered with MQA certificates, which is the most reliable place to confirm a specific programme exists.

A practical example: a student who wants to study law should look under the Faculty of Law and the Melaka campus degree listings, while a student interested in AI and engineering should look at the Faculty of Artificial Intelligence & Engineering and the Faculty of Engineering & Technology.

For the definitive list, including programme details and MQA certification, refer to the "All Programmes" and "Full List of Programmes Offered (MQA Certificates)" sections of the MMU website.
