University of Cyberjaya

What University of Cyberjaya does

University of Cyberjaya (UoC) is a private Malaysian higher education institution operating under the corporate entity UOC Sdn Bhd and wholly owned by Cyberjaya Education Group Berhad. The university was established in 2015 as Cyberjaya University College of Medical Sciences (CUCMS) and was rebranded to its current name in 2016. It is headquartered on Persiaran Bestari in Cyberjaya, Selangor, with three wholly-owned affiliated colleges in Central, Kota Kinabalu (Sabah) and Kuching (Sarawak). The university operates from a single campus in Cyberjaya's designated technology corridor, 30 minutes from Kuala Lumpur and KLIA.

The university delivers more than 20 academic programmes from certificate to PhD level across six faculties and schools: Medicine (including a five-year MBBS), Pharmacy (Bachelor, Master in Clinical Pharmacy, Master of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Doctor of Pharmacy), Health (Nursing, Physiotherapy, Dietetics, Traditional & Complementary Medicine), Business & Technology, Creative Arts and Design, and Psychology and Social Sciences, plus a School of Biomedical Engineering. Its supporting technology consists of two student information systems — the newer UC Campus platform and the legacy Barracuda student portal (currently being migrated) — and a digital-first library housing 22,309 physical volumes and over 29 million digital resources. Research is conducted through a central Research Centre backed by 10 GLP-certified laboratories and anchored by specialised centres including the Halal Science Centre, with 55% of academic researchers holding PhDs. Auxiliary operations include the UoC Health & Psychology Clinic, which doubles as an experiential-learning site.

Revenue is generated through tuition fees (structured separately for domestic and international students with scholarships and financial-aid options), continuing-professional-development workshops priced on a per-seat unit basis (RM200-RM1,000 per participant depending on category), revenue from the on-campus clinic, research grants, and corporate-sponsored academic chairs. The customer base is highly diversified across individual domestic SPM/STPM leavers, international students recruited from Vietnam, Yemen, Cambodia, Indonesia and the Seychelles, and a smaller segment of healthcare professionals seeking CPD. Distribution is executed through direct online and on-campus enrolment, the three affiliate colleges, education fairs and roadshows, open days, and dedicated international admissions support including visa and insurance handling.
