Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) offers a distinctively Asian and global experience that is grounded in maximizing the potential of students and their future-readiness. Incoming exchange students can take a variety of cross-disciplinary modules from Engineering & Technology to Southeast Asian languages and cultures. Aside from being a leading research university in Malaysia, UKM brings a fun, exciting and conducive environment for students to experience something new. Here in Bangi Selangor, students have a wide range of activities to do all day along. From sports facilities to hipster cafes, all are available within a 5 KM radius.
