This module provides a grounding in the concepts and theories related to strategic planning, evaluation, and execution. It introduces the importance of understanding the business environment and establishes the relationship between planning and business success.

Marketers today are increasingly challenging the discipline’s reliance upon the traditional four P’s of marketing as a way of satisfying customers and building profitable customer relationships. This module aims to develop students’ understanding of customers and how organisations can effectively provide both products and services to customers and utilise the marketing function by applying ideas from relationship marketing theories.
Managing People
This module focuses on human resource responsibilities such as recruiting and selection, employee training and development, managing individual employee performance, remuneration and awards. It also covers the procedures for increasing productivity in the workplace, as well as the ability of employers to terminate employees' employment.
Managerial Finance
This module introduces students to major financial concepts; principles and analytical tools of business fund management; and planning their use in making well-reasoned decisions.

What do our Mauritian alumnis say about Asia Pacific University (APU)?

APU has not only given me the chance to study what I wanted but it has also helped me develop the essential skills I needed to secure my dream job right after graduation! Studying and working alongside with people from all over the world was a knowledge-and-exposure enriching experience. My lecturers and other staffs were very friendly and helpful. The study resources and facilities provided to us were of high standard and APU always encouraged me to think "outside-the-box" and opened my eyes into a whole new horizon. I was a also proud member of the Student Welcome Team and Student Ambassadors Team. The challenges that I went through in my student life being away from my family and beloved Mauritius had actually transformed me into the independent and responsible person that I am today. I am now working in the IT Security Team of an international company in Malaysia and I'm proud to say that I'm an APU Graduate!

Asia Pacific University is ranked among the best private Universities in Malaysia. I had the privilege of studying Software Engineering in this university and have graduated with a First Class Honours award. Being an international student, the friendly atmosphere and cultural diversity there made it easy for me to adapt. The lecturer-student relationship at APU is great. Lecturers are able to communicate their knowledge and know-how to their students, enabling us to develop within the system. Also, the contents of the courses and the framing offered are ideal to help someone develop his full potential. Furthermore, the university provides all the students with facilities of International Standards. I also had the opportunity to become a Student Ambassador, implying working alongside with the staff of the University when it comes to dealings in Student Services and International Office. This has helped me to gain experiences in working with people of diverse culture, inducing a corporate working environment in my mindset even before graduation. This really helped me to become self-disciplined and acquire skills such as commitment, self-motivation and confidence.

Отзывы студентов APU

Свое первое высшее я получила в Китае, в городе Пекин, закончила международные финансы, после чего решила закрепить свои знания магистратурой. Просмотрев много отзывов о малазийских ВУЗах, я выбрала университет АПУ. О своем выборе не жалею, так как при окончании я не только получаю 2 диплома: Малазийский и Английский (Staffordshire University), а плюс к этому заграничный опыт управления бизнесом. Учась на программе, я познакомилась со многими иностранцами, с которыми я буду и в дальнейшем поддерживать отношения, через них я узнаю, какой рынок в их стране, что дает мне возможность расширить свой бизнес вне Казахстана в будущем. Преподаватели знают свою работу на отлично, у них большой преподавательский опыт за плечом и они стремятся донести до нас все, чем сами владеют. Мне нравится в них простота и отзывчивость. Внутри университета царит очень позитивная аура, что говорит о том, что университет заботится о нас, чтоб нам было, комфортно учится. Особенно отмечу, что это единственный университет, у которого есть "дресс-код", так как мы лицо университета и мы должны соответствовать статусу, что необходимо также для дальнейшей профессиональной взрослой жизни. Об университетских сотрудниках речи нет, когда бы ты ни пришла, с какой бы то ни просьбой, они всегда готовы выслушать и сделать, все что в их силах. Я очень рада своим выбором данного учебного заведения и рекомендую его для остальных абитуриентов, основываясь на своем опыте.

Университет имеет все условия для студента, чтобы реализовать и воплотить все твои ожидания. Кроме того, студент становится гораздо более ответственным и организованным для деловой жизни в смысле развития собственных навыков личности на пути обучения бухгалтерским навыкам наряду с иностранной валютой. По моему личному опыту, я могу с уверенностью сказать, что университет поощряет меня, поддерживая все мои начинания в области бухгалтерского учета и финансов. Кроме того, университет периодически организовывает индивидуальные исследования и преподаватели находят подход к каждой личности, что ведет к созданию собственной личности среди других студентов. Отличительной чертой программы, на которой я учусь, является то, что он аккредитован ACCA, UK.

Я поступил в APU на мастер бизнес администрирования после окончания КазАТК и 3– х  летнего опыта работы в Казахтелекоме. После долгих раздумий, где бы продолжить обучение, я выбрал этот университет, т.к  это азиатская страна и (что немаловажно) доступное обучение. После окончания университета выдается английский диплом, который думаю пригодится в получении перспективной работы. В этом университете учатся много иностранцев, что говорит о высоком статусе  этого учебного заведения. Университет оснащен современным высокотехническим оборудованием, что делает обучение более эффективным. Так же университет отличается доброжелательным отношением к студентам, соблюдается дресс-код, профессиональным составом преподавателей, академическими знаниями, высокой культурой.

Учеба за границей полна трудностей, и порой, не все складывается гладко, что требует от человека какого-то рода ответственности. Помимо качественного обучения, APU помогло мне вырасти в профессиональном плане и найти свое место в социуме. Моя студенческая жизнь была полна ярких моментов, и я нисколько не сожалею о своем выборе, выборе учиться в APU. APU – это верное место для целеустремленных и амбициозных людей, которые хотят преуспеть и стать ведущими специалистами, каждый в своей сфере.

В решении получать высшее образовании в Малайзии, а именно в Куала – Лумпуре сыграла важную роль моя родная сестра, которая на тот момент оканчивала факультет Бухгалтерии и Финансов (Accounting and Finance)  в университете Asia Pacific University (APU). Опираясь на хорошие отзывы моей сестры и знакомых друзей об этом университете я без долгих раздумий  отправила все необходимые документы для поступления, в результате чего поступила на подготовительный год Foundation, а на данный момент являюсь студентом первого курса факультета Международного Бизнес Менеджмента (International Business Management).
Хочется отметить что студенты нашего университета имеют возможность получить не только образование, но и опыт в работе. Так, сегодня большинство моих друзей и одногруппников являются амбассадорами, техническими ассистентами, библиотекарями нашего университета. Также в свободное от учебы время студенты имеют возможность развиваться в спорте, искусстве и науке, изучать культуру других стран, посещая классы: таекводно, карате, крикета, нетбола; клубы фотографов, музыкантов, инженеров, а также многие другие.

В свои 23 года я успел побывать во многих странах и успел повидать множество образовательных учреждений с различным уровнем образования от мала до велика. При выборе АПУ я положился на положительные отзывы в интернете, но кроме того это еще и был совет знакомых, т.к. они имели дело с этим университетом и были очень довольны преподавателями и персоналом. По приезду в университет, пообщавшись с персоналом, который очень приветливый и готов помочь всегда, так же, пообщавшись с преподавателями после начала учебы, я убедился, что они знают свое дело, объясняют все доступным языком и всегда готовы помочь с пониманием материала если возникают трудности. Так же здесь учатся очень много иностранных студентов, что дает возможность получить большой опыт в общении на английском, а так же в познании других культур. Не жалею о своем выборе и считаю, что сделал правильный выбор. Университет заслуженно получил первое место потому что предоставляет для каждого факультета свои лабораторные комнаты, например у инженеров есть несколько полностью оборудованных лабораторий. Помимо этого АПУ предоставляет библиотеку с большой учебной базой, где вы можете найти практически все что угодно. Так же вы можете найти свободные комнаты по всему университету для обучения в свободное время. Как говорится, все для учебы. Я бы порекомендовал вам этот университет для получения высшего образования, особенно тем, кому важна обстановка.

Я студент первого курса (Degree level1) института APU на специальности Безопасность информационных технологий (Information Systems Security). Университет дал мне многое, в первую очередь знания. Сильный преподавательский состав, хорошие и самое главное понимающие преподаватели, которые выкладываются по полной. Немаловажным в жизни студента, является активная жизнь в университете, различные мероприятия, выезды, это все огромный плюс, который делает студенческую жизнь разнообразной и веселой. С уверенностью говорю, что здесь получают реальные знания и университет оснащён всем необходимым для этого. Специально-оборудованные компьютерные классы и инженерные лаборатории позволяют на практике освоить полученные навыки и знания. Здесь работают прекрасные преподаватели, с которыми очень приятно общаться, они, а так же другие сотрудники, создают атмосферу приличного, развитого во всех отношениях и полностью поддерживающего студентов Университета.

Я учусь в Малайзии в университете АПУ уже второй год. Помимо отличной профессиональной подготовки, университет не забывает о студенческой жизни, что немаловажно для молодежи. Как и многие студенты я веду активную студенческую жизнь, участвую в проведении праздников и благотворительных мероприятий. Мы организовываем международные праздники, дни независимости, чтобы ознакомить иностранных студентов с разными культурами, с историей других стран. Так же студенты, которые активно участвовали в университетской деятельности , получают удовлетворительные отзывы в рекомендационном письме от учителей, что поможет устроиться на работу в будущем. АПУ предоставляет более сорока клубов. Если вы хотите проявить свои организаторские способности, навыки, таланты, и спортивный дух, то вы обязательно сможете найти клуб по интересам. Еще один плюс, это то, что  университет устраивает путешествия  по Малайзии. Благодаря таким экскурсиям я посетила интересные места и попробовала местную кухню.

В Малайзии я живу и учусь второй год. Будучи студенткой IT факультета по специальности Multimedia Technology я получила не только новые знания и навыки, но и большой опыт в различной внеурочной деятельности. С академической точки зрения университет предоставляет обширные возможности для занятий, начиная с высококвалифицированных преподавателей и заканчивая необходимым оборудованием. Библиотека, в которой есть доступ к огромной электронной базе данных книг, инженерные и компьютерные лаборатории, оснащенные необходимой аппаратурой и программным обеспечением, постоянные дополнительные семинары, мастер-классы, выставки, конкурсы – все это доступно каждому студенту нашего университета. С другой стороны - активная студенческая жизнь. Множество клубов по интересам, изучение языков, участие в спортивных секциях и соревнованиях, музыкальный, танцевальный, театральный, математический клубы, в общем, все, что душа пожелает. Плюс ко всему у студентов имеется возможность работать на неполной рабочей ставке. Есть различные варианты подработки в зависимости от твоих интересов. Некоторые студенты подрабатывают как помощники в библиотеке или компьютерных лабораториях, некоторые помогают на образовательных выставках высших учебных заведений, представляя APU. За неполные два года обучения здесь, я очень улучшила свой английский язык, познакомилась с огромным количеством людей из разных стран, побывала во многих местах Куала Лумпура, участвовала в разных мероприятиях, работала на многих выставках и еще много-много чего интересного.

До приезда в Малайзию, я никогда не думала, что однажды буду учиться в этой стране Юго-восточной Азии, о которой в то время я ничего не знала, кроме как ее местоположения. Учиться в другой стране стоит хотя бы для того, чтобы расширить свой кругозор, избавиться от стереотипов, познакомиться с новыми людьми и, само собой, получить хорошее образование. Всё это я нашла здесь - в Малайзии, в APU. Университет популярен своими техническими специальностями, что и последовало моему выбору BSc in Software Engineering. Все учителя, которые когда-либо были у меня, проявляли себя очень отзывчиво, они всегда были готовы к вопросам от студентов. Работая в групповых проектах с иностранцами, я всегда пытаюсь научиться полезному у своих одногруппников, ведь у каждого из них свое мнение, воспитание и отношение к учебе. От этого сложилось так, что всегда есть стремление получать только отличные результаты. Я надеюсь, что каждый откроет для себя что-то новое в Малайзии.

Малайзия для меня – страна огромных возможностей в плане образования, бизнеса и отдыха. Сильная экономика, развитая сфера информационных технологий привлекает в эту страну с каждым годом все больше туристов и студентов.
Учиться интересно, основной акцент в учебе делается на самостоятельность и самообразование. Широкая информационная база, преподавательский состав, организация процесса обучения — все эти преимущества выделяют Малайзию, как страну, где есть возможность получить «твердый фундамент» и в будущем реализовать себя в качестве высококлассного специалиста.
Жители Малайзии — народ спокойный и миролюбивый. Прощают иностранцам многие проявления неуважения к их традициям и устоям.
Трудностей в процессе образования серьезных нет. Случались недопонимания с администрацией университета в плане жилья, программ обучения, предоставления информации касательно учебы. Но это лишь текущие моменты, которые быстро разрешались.

После тщательного изучения и поисков, я твердо уверена, что программы обучения, которые предоставляет Азиатско-Тихоокеанский Университет, дают хорошую базу образования, которая может подготовить меня к требованиям современного делового мира.
Расположение университета также очень важно для персонального роста и развития. Находясь в красивой столице Малайзии, университет предоставляет широкие возможности для студенческой жизни. К тому же, я была приятно удивлена, что все сертификаты Азиатско-Тихоокеанского Университета присуждаются в соответствии со Стаффордширским Университетом, что тем самым делает университет эквивалентным европейскому. Наконец, университет предлагает широкий выбор программ в различных сферах обучения, которые обеспечивают будущих лидеров навыками и опытом, необходимых сегодня.

 Маркетинг менеджмент

Здравствуйте уважаемые абитуриенты и их родители!
Меня зовут Мадина, я закончила казахстанский ВУЗ по специальности «Маркетинг». Профессию я выбрала еще, когда была школьницей и своим выбором вполне довольна. Я получила отличные базовые знания во время учебы на бакалавра, что в дальнейшем очень помогли мне в работе. Имея двух летний стаж работы, я решила закрепить свои знания в области маркетинга и управления на опыте других стран, т.к. в силу своего экономического развития наша страна, в некоторых вопросах организации рынка, еще уступает другим странам. Зарубежный же ВУЗ – отличный способ посмотреть на свою профессию, с другой стороны.
Заручившись поддержкой родителей, я приступила к поиску университета для продолжения обучения на магистратуре. После рассмотрения многих вариантов, самым выгодным оказалось предложение от Малазийского APU. Прочитав много отзывов и посетив некоторые встречи, я утвердилась с выбором. Этот ВУЗ является одним из ведущих в IT сфере в тихоокеанском регионе и это отличное соседство для дальновидных студентов, которые выбрали бизнес сферу. К тому же отлично сочетается по принципу цена/качество.
Приехав в Куала-Лумпур я убедилась, что APU один из лучших ВУЗов Малайзии. Я бы назвала APU учебным заведением полного цикла, здесь есть все необходимое для студента. Каждый иностранный студент будет окружен заботой, как только он выйдет из самолета, вплоть до расселения в общежитии. Обязательно будет проведен полный инструктаж по основным учебным и бытовым вопросам. Конечно, APU имеет хорошую библиотеку и отлично компьютеризирован. Всегда есть возможность найти необходимую информацию, подготовиться к занятиям или провести лабораторную работу. В скором будущем тут будет один большой и комфортабельный кампус, но пока существует удобная система транспортировки. По специальному графику и маршруту постоянно ездят автобусы. Студенты имеют возможность свободно передвигаться от одного корпуса к другому и возвращаться домой в общежитие. Это очень экономит студенческий бюджет. Хорошо организован досуг для обучающихся, тут часто устраиваются поездки на природу, где можно найти новых друзей и ближе познакомиться с природой Малайзии. Каждый сотрудник APU, будь то преподаватель или комендант общежития всегда готов прийти на помощь студенту. Самое прекрасное, что они гордятся своей работой и нашим университетом!
Мой выбор оправдан: APU – университет перфекционист, который не останавливается на достигнутом и развивается дальше, за ним большая история и много успешных выпускников по всему миру и я часть его!

Закончив школу, как и все абитуриенты,  я столкнулась перед выбором моей будущей профессии. У меня был выбор поступить в Россию, в Кипр или в Малайзию, но мне долго думать не пришлось. Я выбрала малазийский университет APU потому, что по отзывам друзей и студентов Малайзии здесь хорошее качество образования по Британской системе. Цена на обучение и на проживание доступная. Малайзия – исламская страна, безопасная для студентов, и родители могут быть спокойны. Я не жалею, что поступила сюда, так как, изучая английский язык, нашла много друзей из разных стран.

В этом университете я учусь почти год и за этот год я получил очень много информации, преподаватели вкладываются полностью в свою работу, объясняют всё максимально доходчиво и на высшем уровне. Этот университет оправдал все мои ожидания, здесь ты можешь получить не только превосходные знания для своего будущего, но так же ты учишься быть более самостоятельным, распределять правильно свое время, быть более организованным. Одним из множества плюсов университета является тем, что после окончания АПУ получаете сразу 2 диплома: Малазийский и Английский. Они предоставляют для студентов все удобства, они заботятся о каждом, стараются не только дать нам хорошее образование, но и сделать наше проживание намного удобнее. Так же преподаватели компьютерных технологий всегда предоставляют нам шанс выделить, проявить и попробовать себя абсолютно во всём, всегда поддерживают решение и могут передать очень ценный опыт, который пригодится в дальнейшем развитии. В АПУ высокие требования к студентам и именно поэтому он входит в один из самых лучших университетов Малайзии. Также хочу выделить сотрудников университета: они очень дружелюбные и всегда готовы помочь во всём, делая всё, что в их силах.

It provides a great opportunity to network globally since 60 % of the students originate from different parts of the world.
It’s located strategically, 10-15 min by car to the capital city or 30 min by train.
Lectures and tutorials are structured in such a way to make you think out of the box.
It creates a platform for students to interact with each other and learn about diverse cultures through the cultural nights hosted seasonally at the university’s premises.
Apart from having a good reputation of employable graduates, APU ensures that you practice your skills even before graduating though internships or giving opportunities forstudents to work within the university, as student helper/ ambassadors /library assistants.
There is also the provision of one to grow through extra-curricular activities such as the various clubs and sports available.
I am glad to be part of APU big family.
This university gives a lot opportunity to be successful person in future.

My name is Aisuluu Kasymova and I am from Kyrgyzstan.
As a student of Asia Pacific University of Technology and Innovation I have been staying in Malaysia for the past 2.5 years pursuing the degree in Software Engineering. As for foreign student it was difficult to stay in another country far from my family and friends in a totally different environment, however, APU with its diversity of people from various countries all around the world became a new experience for me.
APU gives a lot of opportunities for students to express themselves in different extracurricular activities, various events are organized by students where people can get to know traditions and customs of other nations and experience different cultures. Moreover, APU is the only university that provides part-time job opportunities for students which was very important for me since as well as other students I wanted to support my parents at least by paying for pocket expenses. After I became Technical Assistant I was able to do so, plus, I gained invaluable technical experience and learned how to better manage my time and behave in work environment. As an IT student I was glad to discover plenty of technical workshops, seminars, competitions, and certification courses organized for software students by such companies as Microsoft, Google, IBM, CISCO, and more.
In overall, experience that I gained here will be definitely useful in my future and apparently I will miss these years spent in APU and Malaysia generally.

My name is Azizkhon Maksumov and I am from Uzbekistan. I did my degree in Malaysia at APU from 2010 till 2013 and those years were the best ones in my entire life.
I made a lot of friends from all over the world with different cultures and nationalities. I have learnt a lot about the all the subjects that we had.
The lecturers and all the staff that work at the administration were great. They helped me in every aspect of my spending time in Malaysia and I am still really grateful. Now I am working at the state committee of the republic of Uzbekistan for privatization, demonipolization and development of competition as a leading specialist at one of the departments. I really want once more go to APU and spend my time with great people. APU thank you very much for giving me long lasting life experience and knowledge that helped me to find my own place in this competitive world.

Вот уже прошло больше двух лет после окончания университета, а возможности, которые дал мне APU просто не счесть. Помнится первая неделя, когда студенты пригласили участвовать в нескольких мероприятиях, тут то все и началось: конкурсы, проекты, дебаты, соревнования, представления и многое другое - и это все происходило помимо учебы.
Многому научилась в сфере ИТ, хотя изначально прилетела учить Международный Бизнес. Неудивительно, когда APU является одним из лучших университетов в Малайзии в этом направлении. Но все таки международный опыт был получен, так как мы отучились с ребятами более чем из 100 стран мира. В любой ситуации, происходившей в мире, информацию мы получали из первых уст.
Нужно отметить, что главное приобретённое сокровище помимо знаний - это друзья и партнеры по делу со всего мира, ведь когда-то они были просто одногруппниками или студентами в моем университете. Сейчас, путешествуя по миру, особенно ощущаю важность нетворкинга, оно всегда пригодится - где бы я ни находилась, есть друзья, которые встретят, посоветуют и просто проведут с тобой хорошее время.

Cholo Bangladesh! Cholo A.P.U!

Asia Pacific University, formerly known as APIIT & UCTI, remains as a popular and preferred Institution of Higher Learning among Bangladeshi students. Currently, we have approximately 280 Bangladeshi students who are pursuing various programmes at different  levels with us including Certificate-level programmes, Diplomas, Bachelor Degrees, Masters programmes and even PhD programmes. We have always found Bangladeshi students to be diligent, hard-working and exemplary to other students and are also generally known to be high achievers among our international students community that comprises of approximately 11,000 students coming from over 110 countries.
Community of
Banglades
hi Students

@ Asia Pacific University
APU has its own Bangladeshi Community which is known as Community of Bangladeshi Students in APU (C.B.S.) consisting of more than 280 Bangladeshi students. The community is for the Bangladeshis, of the Bangladeshis and by the Bangladeshis. The prime purpose of having the community is to ensure that the Bangladeshi students 'feel home away from home'. Additionally, the community set up its main goal to represent Bangladesh with respect and dignity in front of all the 110 countries’ APU students as well as all over Malaysia.
Among the major activities of C.B.S., organizing the celebration of the Bengali New Year/ Boishakhi @ APU is to be mentioned. C.B.S. also merges with other communities & societies in APU to organize multicultural events. C.B.S. members have been performing consistently for the last 4 years in Bangladeshi Cultural Night organized by University of Malaya where C.B.S. members dance performance was praised by all. With a view to celebrating different religious festivals i.e. Eid / Raya, Fasting/ Puasa and cultural events and national days i.e. International Mother Language Day, Independence Day etc very often get-togethers are organized by C.B.S members.

As far as recreational activities are concerned, the community members very frequently participate in Cricket, Futsal, Football, Badminton tournament etc to defend the country colors. As the consequences, C.B.S. team Bangladeshi Tigers has become the champion of APU Cricket Tournament 2016 and all the members still working hard to earn more respect and name for Bangladesh.

What do our Bangladeshi alumnis say about Asia Pacific University (APU)?

I still remember the day I put my first step on those stairs of A.P.U, TPM building with my brother to get my admission into Foundation in the year 2010. I was shaky, nervous and totally intimidated by the sight of everybody around me dressed like business tycoons. Little did I know that the stairs I was climbing will only take me higher and I’ll never have to look down from there. A.P.U had been a journey that changed my life for good in every aspect - from my career perspective to my personality. Through tutorials and assignments with incredibly supportive classmates from a diverse culture, added with the latest technologies and professors who were nothing short of champions, I was challenged to discover a part of me I didn’t know I had. That part now plays a central role in my work, as a Content Developer and News Presenter in Channel 8 News Bangladesh, a business alliance of a multinational company Digital Media Express, that also happens to be a Google partner. It is vital to think critically, to plan, to imagine, to communicate, and to engage with foreign clients and journalists - all of which, my years in A.P.U has embedded deep within me. Having been shaped by A.P.U in a creative, fun, yet rigorous, environment, I found myself able to communicate, innovate, and collaborate in ways that enabled me to build a successful career in Digital Media Express.
Reflecting upon my four years, i.e. Foundation plus my Dual Degrees in BA (Hons) International Business Management, I conclude that the four years at A.P.U were undoubtedly among the best years of my life - so much so that, A.P.U members now feel like family I’ve left behind and Malaysia feel more like home to me than my own country.

Joining Asia Pacific University has been an ultimate turn over of my life. It is one of the best renowned private university in Malaysia who has gained tremendous reputation in the education sector of Malaysia. They are not one of the best but simply the best in IT as well as other courses. The skills of the lecturer and their communication with the students has been outstanding. Because of the great effort from the lecturers and the staffs, I have successfully achieved 2nd class 1st Hons in Software Engineering. Furthermore, being an international student, it is a great atmosphere in APU as students can see diversified cultures along with a friendly and helping mindset. Altogether, it has really helped me to achieve success in life and has combined self-confidence, passion and dedication towards my future life.
