BERJAYA University College

The BERJAYA University College (BERJAYA UC) received its licence to operate as an institution of higher learning in 2008. SInce then, they have offered programmes related to Hospitality, Tourism, Culinary Arts and Business Management from foundation to undergraduate levels.  These programmes are offered under Six (6) Schools, which are the School of Culinary Arts, School of Hospitality, School of Tourism, School of Business, School of Liberal Arts and School of Sports, Leisure & Lifestyle.  Foundation studies are offered to post-secondary school leavers as an entry qualifier to the undergraduate programmes too.

At BERJAYA University College, commitment towards professional excellence focuses on ‘human development’, attention to detail in teaching and learning the unique qualities which differentiate us from the rest. The University College has an integrated classroom-community space for students to learn and apply their knowledge and skills in real-life situations, which is what we call the BERJAYA Immersion Methodology. An important part of this approach depends greatly on the innovative academic curriculum, delivered both inside and outside of the classrooms, which are both academic and career-focused, and is based on the ‘Learning by Doing’ principle. This approach educates our students to think critically, communicate effectively, work productively and manage professionally right from the day they start with us.  

Closing the gap between student’s qualifications and industry needs, BERJAYA UC pays special attention to opportunities for quality industrial work placements for the students. The support of the Berjaya Group of Companies plays an integral part on industry placements with their local and international Hotels, Resorts and Clubs providing a platform for students to gain placement and exposures, thereby enhancing their skills and knowledge in a global environment. The students also get first priority to fill up permanent positions within the subsidiaries of the group.

Since its inception in 2008, BERJAYA UC has established strategic partnerships with recognised professional and academic institutions of higher learning from UK, USA, Australia, Europe and South Korea who are forerunners in areas of Hospitality, Culinary Arts, Tourism, Retail and Event Management. These collaborations include future developments in the areas of curriculum development, licensing of academic programmes, staff-student exchanges and research opportunities.

True to our vision and commitment of inspiring lives and widening horizons, BERJAYA UC aims to be an institution with ‘people and places’ with regional branches campuses and articulation arrangements in various parts of the world. We value engagement with education and industry partners, and the various communities we serve. We invite individuals to come as students and leave as professionals.
