MIU has introduced exciting scholarships for SPM students pursuing Foundation programmes.
Manipal International University (MIU) is pleased to announce a new scholarship for SPM students, among other scholarships in its diploma and degree programmes. SPM students who score 6As or above are eligible for 100% scholarship in the foundation programme. This scholarship can only be attained by students who sign up to progress to degree programmes after completing the foundation.
As this scholarship is for meritorious, hard-working students, there are more scholarships in its diploma and degree programmes which can help good students finish both their foundation and diploma/degree courses without paying hefty fees.
It offers 40% scholarship for all diploma programmes and students who maintain a CGPA of 2.0 or above will be eligible for PTPTN. Those who qualify for 100% PTPTN in diploma will not have to pay any programme fees.
There are also scholarships up to 50% for degree programmes with PTPTN up to 100%.
All programmes at foundation, diploma, and degree levels are fully accredited by the MQA, including the analytics driven MBA. Beyond the MQA, the programmes are also globally recognised by relevant industry standards such as the Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC) and the Washington Accord for our Engineering programmes. The Biotechnology programme is registered as the Industry Centre of Excellence (ICOE) under the Higher Education Ministry. The Accounting programme, meanwhile is affiliated with the Charted Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) and also the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA).
The institution is also a member of the global Association of MBAs (AMBA) for its MBA programme. Graduates of its programmes have an advantage in their respective fields due to such high-quality industry affiliations.
Furthermore, international exposure is a key focus at Manipal. Its undergraduate and postgraduate students have multiple opportunities to pursue parts of their studies with partner universities in India, Australia, UK, UAE and more.
