Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
The Secretariat of Postgraduate Studies (SPS) coordinates various graduate programmes encompassing Masters, PhD and Masters for Clinical Specialists. Every academic session, our Faculty manages over 1500 students both local and international. With a faculty of 368 academicians and an established specialist teaching hospital, we are committed in ensuring that the academic pursuit of every student will be a fulfilling journey. To ensure this, the Faculty of Medicine has close collaboration with the Graduate Centre, Academic Management Centre and Centre for Educational Extension which are all based in the main UKM Bangi campus.
With the newly established International Affairs Unit in our faculty, we are also committed in facilitating all processes in relation to admissions and beyond in order to provide a conducive learning environment for our international students. In addition to this, the Graduates Assist Unit was recently formed to ensure psychosocial well-being amongst the student community as a whole with a peer support system in place. As one of the premier Malaysian universities and the first to offer a clinical postgraduate programme, the faculty now offers the Clinical Fellowship Programme for specialists who wish to pursue sub-specialty training in both medical and surgical based sub-specialties. This structured programme provides the opportunity for world class training by our best experts. With a track record of having produced 3095 clinical specialists, UKM is set on becoming the niche for postgraduate fellowship training.
The global society requires resilient leaders with broad perspectives yet flexible way of thinking. UKM will aspire you to greater heights by “inspiring futures and nurturing possibilities”.
The Faculty of Medicine UKM was established in 1974 and commenced with 44 students for the 1973/74 admissions session.
