I
have lay out the preview about the programs offers in UNITEN and some
links for more info, next the authors will give out their opinion on the
programs offers in UNITEN.
Accreditation on the programs that are being offered are important, why? Well that been said that programs that follows the National Accreditation Board(LAN) states those that graduates through this programs can use their results to apply for work. This is very important because there are some university that says their programs follows LAN but actually there are not or if they do, it is already expired. By clicking here and here, you can see that Uniten programs are approve by Malaysian Qualification Register(MQR) which also means it follows LAN. The staff of Uniten not only formulate the programs to follow LAN, the programs also fulfill the requirements for membership to the relevant professional bodies throughout the globe as stated by the admin. With so much professional bodies recognize the programs that being offered in Uniten, it is easier for graduates to find jobs not only in Malaysia, but anywhere in the world.
I myself had study aboard before, and it was really fun studying there. Different places have different mind sets, so as different life style. Life of 4 seasons are really different with Malaysia, where only have 2 seasons. So, have you ever wanted to study aboard but can't really afford it? Don't worry, Uniten have this speacial program called Student Mobility Programme(SMP), where student can go and study aboard where Uniten have collaboration with, which can be see by clicking here. The best part is, due to the terms and conditions of the Memorandum of Understanding(MoU), you as students only have to pay the tuition fees to Uniten, not to the university that you are exchanged to, which also means cheaper compare to if you going there by yourself.
Since I was talking about fees, my final point shall be about the programs fees. When I was applying for my degree, (due to a good result of diploma) I receive many offers by many university. As I was making my decision, money comes in problem. Fees introduce by Uniten is lower if you really know what the actual fee of the programs that they offers. More to that, Uniten have a lot of scholarship and sponsorship such as MARA, JPA, YTN, PTPTN and much more. This can help those who cant really afford to pay the tuition fees like me can continue to study and follow your dreams.
I think my points are enough to you readers, stating that Uniten programs are not only affordable, but also a wise choice for further studies.

[All the information given in the list above are subject to change]
Looking
into the list provided, it is clear to state that some of the subjects
listed above will be taken by a student regardless which courses that he
or she takes as their primary study area. This is quite a good practice
for a university to grasp and implement with. This is because with the
almost the same subject but in different field or area of focus study, a
student can get more information, experience, different perspective
point of view when they studying other subjects that is outside of their
area of specialization.
Fitting
wtih the UNITEN's motto, "Uniten Generates Professionals" which
is makes it even precise on what UNITEN is focusing of their mission and
vision and what their hope from their students. Thus, even with both
different title of Degrees, either it is Bachelor of Computer Science in
System and Networking (Hons.) or Bachelor of Computer Science in
Software Engineering (Hons.) that the student earned, they learn much
more of what they need to be and simultaneously increasing
their proficiency in real working situations and also polishing their
soft-skills in managing both personal and professional issues in their
daily life. Thus, even just supplied with only a piece of paper that
carrying the Degree's title, their experience and sharpened skill gain
from their harsh learning and study in UNITEN's COIT will makes them
work efficiently and even completing task beyond their expertise and
capabilities without breaking a sweat.
Join UNITEN. Join the professionalism lineage era.

In my two years in UNITEN, I've heard many criticism regarding this hugely diverse institute. To some extent, even tarnishing it's name. Some would say that the "UNITEN student" is just too typical for this varsity and does not have the edge to produce something great. It's a distant lack of an accurate stereotype that sets the students apart. How I wish to make them eat their words. The thing is, we are too passionately egoistic to pursue any common-definition.
There is no such thing as a typical "UNITEN student" and we're all are unique in the matter. I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm proud to be here and couldn't be anymore happier of why I made my choice here. Other than being the first private university in Malaysia , I will tell you why you should make Universiti Tenaga Nasional your choice.
1. Top notch engineering curriculum.
The
College of Engineering in UNITEN has deemed the largest and most sought
after college in the institute. It branches out into 5 different
engineering department which are Electronics &Communication Engineering, Electrical Power Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering and Engineering Mathematics
and Management Unit. These are all backed up by professional and highly
recommended educators. The engineering department has student body
program that encourages all engineering peers to take part in any
activities that is being held on to help improve not only their studies
but also give a wide understanding on the course. (Photo credits to Ahmad Anas)
2. Ever growing IT hardware and software.
College of Information Technology or COIT is another college offered here in UNITEN. It was acknowledged as an independent college and established in 2003. The college building itself is new and consists of two levels of computer lab which has many high end PCs available. This college has four courses available and offers top subjects such as CISCO academy learning, .NET programming language and many more that provides working class skills in the industry.
3. Further business studies.
UNITEN also offers business and accounting courses. The College of Business and Accounting is solely located at the east peninsular, Pahang. This college branches out into four respective departments. The programmes provided is recognized by distinguished Malaysian and International professional bodies such as the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA), Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) and many more.
To summarize, UNITEN has incredible curriculum that provides all the necessary qualifications to enable you to pursue your passions and personalize your UNITEN experience like never before! The world is your oyster, choose UNITEN
UNITEN offers me a multitude of lecturers from different background, race and country giving students a window for them to see what they will face in the working world. They, the lecturers not only teaches what they subject covers they also teach me the customs and taboo of different cultures and also how it is important to respect it.
They also teach their students how to be independent and ready the students for a harsh working world even if they push us onto a place out of our comfort zone. For example, I was appointed as a deputy leader of a group of people in Malaysian Territorial Army program during my foundation years and I was thought to take responsibility for my subordinates action. Even though I dreaded the position by the end of the semester I realized that all the hardship I went through was to make me a more responsible person and taught me that in a team you have to make compromises and let go of personal hate and grudge when doing your work to ensure a smoother workflow.
In conclusion, the lecturers in UNITEN delivers the subject in the programs and then gives more in the form of soft skill like leadership and respect to the students. When you apply for a program in UNITEN you're not only going to get the outlined course you also get bitter sweet life lessons.

The gears behind the programs
I have been studying at UNITEN for almost two whole years and I'm proud to say I've been enjoying the experience. People usually talk about qualifications and achievements as a benchmark when they're looking for places to further their studies. It's not wrong for them to do it but lecturers and tutors that teaches the programs at the varsity are also a part of the equation for a better higher education experience.UNITEN offers me a multitude of lecturers from different background, race and country giving students a window for them to see what they will face in the working world. They, the lecturers not only teaches what they subject covers they also teach me the customs and taboo of different cultures and also how it is important to respect it.
