Malaysia Campus Opened by Heriot-Watt University

Heriot-Watt University opened its new, £35m purpose-built campus in Malaysia last month, building on the success of the University’s first overseas campus in Dubai.

As a proven successful exporter of UK Higher Education, Herio-Watt was selected by Putrajaya Holdings as its preferred University partner for the development of the Campus in the administrative capital of Malaysia, Putrajaya. The University opened its first premises in Putrajaya in January 2013, with its global MBA programme.

In September 2014, the new purpose-built campus opened for business with around 500 students on postgraduate and undergraduate programmes. It will cater for up to 4,000 undergraduate and postgraduate students to study a range of Heriot-Watt University degree programmes in science, engineering, business, mathematics and design, all key growth areas for the Malaysian economy.
