“The campus is located in the city centre and the lecturers and student assistance staff are very passionate about what they do.

Study tours
The Faculty of Business and Law run a number of tours throughout the year. Some are discipline specific, others are faculty wide and open to all students.
“I had never heard of Miri before the tour and wasn’t sure what to expect, but can say that it was definitely the highlight of my degree. We got to trek through the jungle, climb through caves and stay in a traditional longhouse with the Iban tribe. I can say that these are memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life.”

International internships
Love to travel? Why not combine your love of travelling with real industry experience through an international internship!
“My biggest take away was learning how other cultures work in office environments specifically in regards to communication. The highlight for me would learning the language and being able to speak to locals after only a few weeks. This was the best study experience I have ever had and it was excellent meeting so many people.”
