UNITEN INFORMATION, REVIEWS & COMMENTS

I've realized that when choosing and applying a university, one must do thorough research on the uni he's looking. And I also realized that besides the official website of a uni (which is very one sided), very little unofficial sites provides informations and reviews regarding the uni. So here I am putting up a big title "UNITEN INFORMATION, REVIEWS & COMMENTS", hoping that other people who wants some info and reviews about this uni will stumble here, through google perhaps.

Here's a rough preview;
-Its a university for engineering and IT!
-It's located near Kajang area
-One of the largest private University in Malaysia
-Fees considered cheap considering its an engineering university

Pro's
-Well recognized throughout Malaysia (Not sure about international)
-Have multiple bonds between other companies (Ensuring students job opportunities)
-Provides state-of-the-art facilities for practical training in both engineering & IT
-Good lecturers.
-Established library.
-Good sports facilities (basketball, badminton, futsal, football, rugby, golf, swimming pool, etc)
-Have national level clubs
-Lots of scholarships provided, usually for foundation and first year degree students.
-Environmental-Friendly ( As in both students and environment)

Cons (Here comes...)
-It can be said, 80% of the students are.... BOYS. ( Don't be surprised if you didn't get to meet any girls in one semester). UNITEN is cursed.
-Poor management.
-Besides paying for the room, you'll also need to pay for the electricity. Yes, You've heard it right, you need to pay for the electricity here in University Tenaga Nasional. Small issue though.
-Slow internet speed. Around 10 to 20kbps. No wifi in apartment, you need to bring your own cable.
-Moral and Bahasa Malaysia subjects are included in counting your grade and can affect your CGPA!!

Other facts
-Known for cramping up semesters, which means no study weeks, lesser holidays, but speed up graduation.

Conclusion: If you're looking for a good engineering and IT school and fully focused on study, I highly recommend UNITEN. With UNITEN, your future is secure.
