Outcome Based Education (OBE)
Our curriculum is a collaborative effort, between our team of academicians and our Industry Advisory Panel (IAP). We design our curriculum based on the needs of the industry, to ensure Employability Edge among our students, while maintaining our standards, by ensuring our programmes are full-accreditation compliant.
Our programme delivery is based on Outcome Based Education (OBE), in which high graduate employability is our end result.
Value-added Skills
Training Apart from technical knowledge in the Engineering field, we highly believe that students should also possess life skills such as critical thinking, communication and professionalism. Our Problem Based Learning (PBL) leads to producing critical and innovative graduates, in which multiple wins in various industry-standard-competitions are our best testaments of success.
Student Experiences
Our academicians believe that learning should not be confined within classrooms and lecture halls. As early as the first year of their study, students possess the opportunities to gain hands-on exposure to the industry, to experience life as a professional engineer, as well as to build connections with professional engineers through regular industrial visits to manufacturing plants, factories, sites and offices of our industry partners, such as MEASAT, Top Glove, ABB and more.
The IEM-APU Student Section (IASS) is a committee for the students by the students. Since its establishment in 2015, IASS never failed to organise monthly technical events in collaboration with IEM, to boost students’ managerial skills, innovation and presentation skills while learning to manage and organise professional-standard events from A to Z.
INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION – ENGINEERING DEGREES ACCREDITED UNDER THE WASHINGTON ACCORD

APU Engineering Degrees are fully accredited by the
Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM)
 which is a signatory to the Washington Accord.
APU Engineering Degrees are Accredited Professionally by the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) and are therefore recognised internationally under the Washington Accord. Recognition under the Washington Accord allows for APU engineering programmes to be recognised by countries such as Australia, Canada, China, Chinese Taipei, Costa Rica, Hong Kong China, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Pakistan, Peru, Russia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States who are all signatories of the accord.
This allows APU graduates to be recognised in these countries for career opportunities towards achieving Professional/Chartered Engineer status or for further education progression. Furthermore, many countries which are not yet signatories to the Washington Accord also use this as a benchmark in recognising Engineering Degrees.
This accreditation ensures that APU Engineering Graduates will have the following benefits in countries who are signatories of the Washington Accord:
Opportunities to register as a Graduate Engineer with Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) or the relevant professional bodies in other countries who are signatories under the Washington Accord.
Pathways to becoming a Professional or Chartered Engineer.
Assurance that graduates are considered as having met international academic standards for engineering practice.
With this achievement, recognition under the Washington Accord enables APU Engineering graduates to work in any country in the world who are also a signatory to the Accord, without the need to re-qualify. The recognition is of utmost importance to the engineering education in Malaysia as graduates from accredited engineering degree programmes from Washington Accord signatory countries are considered as meeting the academic standard for practices in engineering at the international level.
Please refer to
https://www.ieagreements.org/accords/washington/
The above benefits are applicable in the following countries, which are signatory to the Washington Accord:
“Signatories have full rights of participation in the Accord; qualifications accredited or recognised by other signatories are recognised by each signatory as being substantially equivalent to accredited or recognised qualifications within its own jurisdiction”

Sports and Recreation

 It is important to take time for sports and exercises to keep your physical well-being. Engaging in moderate sports activities will help you gain physical, social and mental health.
Our indoor social and recreation space is a place for you to relax and unwind outside class and lab hours. You can engage in games such as table tennis, football, pool and board games such as checkers, chess and caroms.
Our campus is situated near the National Sports Complex in Bukit Jalil, giving you access to world-class sports facilities for swimming, football, hockey, squash and a host of other physical activities.
In addition, the Technoflex Club of TPM is close by to give you access to sports facilities for badminton, tennis and squash.
Check out the Sports & Recreation Activities that we have on campus.


Clubs and Special Interest Groups

Societes & Special Interest Groups allow forums for staff and students to communicate ideas and best practices to support staff development and student learning.
Click here to view the full listing of Clubs & Societies at APU.


Working While Studying

If you would like to gain some work experience, you may be able to work while you are studying.

Working on campus
At APU, we have on-campus part-time working opportunities for students - library assistant, IT labs technical assistant, programmer, multimedia developer, and Student Ambassadors. Availability depends on the vacancies that we have for these positions throughout the year. Most of these working opportunities require that you have been an APU student for a minimum of 1 semester, are fluent in English, and have the ability to work in teams. Check this site regularly for notices of new openings.
There is no open position at this time. For consideration of any future opening, submit your resume / CV to us by completing this
form
.

Working off campus
Besides the work opportunities on campus, you can also engage in part-time work outside campus provided you have the approval. However, your studies must always remain your primary priority as International students are not allowed to work in Malaysia while studying.
For international students, you must have a valid Student Pass and be on a semester break of more than 7 days. This allows you to work up to 20 hours a week with a student work permit approval from the Malaysian Immigration Office. Please note that this is under very strict guidelines and you should consult Student Services on this matter.
