Education Placement
The Malaysia education system is divided into preschool education, primary education, secondary education, post-secondary education and tertiary education. It is further divided into public and private education.
Currently, there are 43 universities, 31 private university colleges, 9 foreign university branch campuses, 414 private colleges and 150 private international school in Malaysia.
There are many students who attend international schools in Malaysia. International schools in Malaysia follow various curriculums, such as the Cambridge International Curriculum (UK), Australian Curriculum (Western Australia), Canadian Curriculum (Ontario) and the IB Curriculum (Switzerland).
The following are some of the notable private international school in Malaysia:-
Many private colleges offer programmes whereby the student does part of his degree course here and part of it in the other institution; this is called "twinning". The nature of these programs is diverse and ranges from the full "twinning" program where all credits and transcripts are transferable and admission is automatic to programs where the local institution offers an "associate degree" which is accepted at the discretion of the partnering university. In the latter case, acceptance of transcripts and credits is at the discretion of the partner. Some of them are branch campuses of these foreign institutions. In addition, four reputable international universities have set up their branch campuses in Malaysia since 1998. A branch can be seen as an 'offshore campus' of the foreign university, which offers the same courses and awards as the main campus. Local and international students can acquire these identical foreign qualifications in Malaysia at a lower fee. Some of the foreign university branch campuses in Malaysia are:
- University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus
- Monash University Malaysia Campus
- Curtin University, Malaysia
- Swinburne University of Technology Sarawak Campus
- Newcastle University Medicine Malaysia (NUMed)
- University of Southampton Malaysia Campus

- University of Reading Malaysia
- Xiamen University Malaysia
- Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland and University College Dublin Malaysia Campus
