CEO's Message
The University of Reading has been successfully educating international students for more than a century. Malaysian graduates of the University are already leading businesses and professions and contributing to public life, all over the world – not least here in Malaysia.
Now students will be able to have the best of both worlds – the chance to study for a UK degree but in dynamic Malaysia. Whether studying one of Reading’s traditional strengths or with the world-class, triple-accredited Henley Business School, students can expect a rigorous and challenging education in a friendly, supportive and internationally diverse environment, taught by the best academics in their field. Here is where future leaders will thrive.
Asia is the continent for the 21st century and the most exciting region in the world. We’re proud to be part of it and are ready to welcome students to our new home.
