For 23 students from Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), the classroom is extending beyond Malaysia’s borders as international mobility opportunities open doors to new academic experiences, cultural perspectives and global networks.
Through its 2026 international mobility initiatives, UniKL is facilitating overseas learning opportunities in Poland, Germany, Indonesia and China, involving students from three institutes and engagements with five international universities.
The initiatives bring together eight students under the ISEM Winter Semester 2026 programme and another 15 from UniKL Malaysian Institute of Industrial Technology (UniKL MITEC) participating in a strategic mobility exchange programme in China.
These opportunities reflect UniKL’s efforts to internationalise technical and higher education, providing students with experiences that complement their academic development and prepare them for an increasingly interconnected world.
Under the ISEM Winter Semester 2026 programme, eight students from UniKL Malaysian Institute of Information Technology (MIIT) and UniKL Malaysian Institute of Chemical and Bioengineering Technology (MICET) have been selected for academic mobility opportunities at partner universities in Europe and Southeast Asia.
In Poland, UniKL MICET student Putera Muhammad Danial Abdul Halim is undertaking an academic exchange at Kozminski University in Warsaw through Erasmus+ sponsorship.
Pursuing a Bachelor of Environmental Management and Sustainability Technology with Honours, his mobility experience provides opportunities to engage with an international academic environment while broadening his perspectives on sustainability-related studies.
Meanwhile, Germany is hosting three UniKL MIIT students pursuing a Bachelor of Information Technology (Hons) in Computer System Security at Duale Hochschule Baden-Württemberg (DHBW) Lörrach.
The students, Kashvinis S. Mohan, Noor Hanin Abdul Hamid @ Zulkifly and Aishah Yuhaniz Afiqah Mahamood Shafri, are participating through Baden-Württemberg sponsorship and self-funded mobility arrangements.
In Indonesia, two UniKL MICET students, Asnita Asmadi and Muhammad Asyraf Abd Jamel, have been selected for academic mobility at Bina Nusantara University (BINUS), pursuing opportunities to expand their learning experiences in environmental management and sustainability technology.
Another two UniKL MIIT students, Damia Yuhanes Mohammad Farid and Amir Nazhan Nor Harisham, are listed for mobility at Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS) in Surabaya, where their academic focus is software engineering.
Further expanding its international engagement, 15 students from UniKL MITEC are set to participate in the Strategic Mobility Exchange Programme 2026 in collaboration with Xingyi Normal University for Nationalities (XNUN), Guizhou, China.
The programme is designed to provide students with international exposure, academic enrichment and cross-cultural learning experiences through engagement with an overseas university environment.
These efforts are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 4: Quality Education, through opportunities for global learning and intercultural education, and SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals, through international academic collaboration and knowledge exchange.
