“Our strong industry collaborations benefit students who actively engage with potential employers before even graduating.”

Strategic Partnerships:

We work with selected industry partners and organisations to provide practical tools, training content, and real-world exposure. Students gain experience through collaborations with global tech players such as the IEEE Computer Society and Ouandatics (M) Sdn. Bhd. which is particularly relevant for those in computing fields. As an academic partner for Epic Games’ Unreal Engine in Southeast Asia, UOW Malaysia students stay ahead with the latest in real-time development tools, especially valuable for those pursuing careers in game development or creative media.
