GLOBAL NETWORKS

Through strategic collaborations with our global partners and active participation in international networks, Universiti Malaya (UM) offers diverse and enriching programs in global education, research, and entrepreneurship. Students have the opportunity to gain valuable cross-cultural experiences and develop a strong appreciation of global issues, while also gaining perspectives from Asia. Our faculty members are well-connected with globally oriented colleagues around the world, engaging in collaborative educational and research activities that cannot be achieved as effectively in a single location.
