A globally recognised degree
A degree from the University of
London is a mark of excellence,
respected by employers
and universities worldwide.
Many of our graduates gain
promotions, new careers or
go on to postgraduate study
as a result of their University
of London qualification.
A trusted name in global education
The University of London International Programmes
has been offering worldwide access to top British
education since 1858. Past students include
seven Nobel Prize winners, politicians, judges,
authors, and business leaders. We now have over
52,000 students in more than 180 countries.
The University of London and Malaysia
We have a long history in Malaysia, with students
first taking University of London exams in Kuala
Lumpur in 1917. Since then, countless Malaysians
have chosen to pursue their higher education
through the University of London International
Programmes. Many of these have gone on to high
ranking positions, including Justice Datuk Richard
Malanjum, Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak. Today,
we have more than 2,800 students in Malaysia.
Standards you can rely on
You can be confident in the standard of your
degree. The standard of assessment is consistent
wherever you study, whether on campus at a
University of London College, or anywhere in the
world. You are assessed using dependable
methods, such as unseen examinations.
This helps to ensure that your University
of London qualification is of the same high
academic standard, however it is achieved.
Malaysia Laws Scholarship
The University of London and King’s College
London have established a scholarship
which is awarded annually to an LLB student
who is a citizen of Malaysia. The successful
applicant may study on campus at King’s
in London to complete their LLB degree.
‘I chose to study the LLB with the
University of London because I
knew that it is a very much sought
after degree and would open
more doors for me in the legal
fraternity. Receiving the King’s
scholarship has further proven
that I made the right choice.’
Navini Rajikumara, LLB
Navini was the 2012 Malaysia Laws Scholarship
winner and is now studying at
King’s College in London.
