The upcoming KDU Campus in Batu Kawan has a feeling of openness, with the building blocks surrounded by green planting / hardscape / spaces formed by The Piazza, The Plaza and Park Avenue. Within the buildings, Park Windows bring the green into breakout spaces centred in the learning cluster, creating an outward looking collaborative mode.

MAIN CENTRAL CONGREGATION SPACEThe Piazza is a large, open to sky, gathering space on the 2nd floor where bazaars, fund raising events and outdoor performances can be held. It is a combination of turf and hardscape to allow these events to occur.

BREAKOUT SPACESOn the ground floor, the Cafeteria spills out around a cooling Water Concourse and an educational Herb & Spice Garden. At the student drop-off, The Galleria exhibits student works. An outdoor Sculpture Garden along the building displays bigger sculptural art works and installations by the students.

Spurred by the success of the Petaling Jaya campus, the KDU board decided to expand the college beyond the Damansara Utama vicinity and plans were quickly made to make this dream a reality. From there, a decision was made to set up a branch campus in Penang with the aim of providing further education access to Penangites as well as the community in Northern Malaysia.

KDU Penang University College began its chapter when it opened its doors to its first batch of students in 1991. Since then, KDU Penang University College has grown by leaps and bounds. Now, sitting proudly in Jalan Anson, KDU Penang University College is the most popular private tertiary education provider in the northern region. It has an international alumni from more than 60 countries around the world.

KDU Penang University College’s range of internationally recognised industry-driven academic programmes covers a wide level of offerings from Pre-University studies to Postgraduate programmes. All its programmes are accredited by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency and are internationally affiliated with top universities around the globe such as University of Lincoln and Northumbria University from the United Kingdom and the IMI International Management Institute Switzerland.

KDU Penang was conferred an all-round 6-star College status by the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) MyQuest Audit 2014/2015. It boasts of state-of-the-art facilities which include industry-standard 5-star kitchens, a Recording Studio, Art Gallery and Design Studios, VLSI engineering labs, Games and Multimedia Computing Design Labs, Business Boardrooms and Lounge, Mock Hotel Suites and many more. All this helps to ensure that every KDU student is well prepared to be gainfully employed upon graduation – an indisputable fact that has strengthened the institution’s impressive graduate employment ratio record.

Over a span of 25 years, our students continue to do us proud with a string of successes in various national and international competitions. In July 2013, KDU Penang was also awarded the Penang MPSP Green Industry Award for the SME Education and Awareness category.

CULTIVATING AN ENTREPRENEURIAL MINDSET

Best Business Project Idea 2017 Competition The Student Entrepreneur Programme is an initiative set up by KDU Penang University College to encourage student-run start-ups, essentially providing a platform for students to gain practical, real-life experiences in setting up and running their own businesses.

In addition to expanding their knowledge and skills, the management of their start-ups, as well as integrated project work, provides them with hands-on experience.

The initiative bridges the gap between academia and industry, bringing a business world element to the campus, and provides students with a better picture of what one might face as an entrepreneur.

4th International Student Conference - “Be the Innovators” The 4th International Student Conference (ISC) themed “Be the Innovators” organised by KDU Penang University College’s Student Council was held from 25 – 27 September 2017, and attracted more than 150 students from 11 countries – China, Hong Kong, Myanmar, Vietnam, United Kingdom, Sri Lanka, Korea, Thailand, Brunei, Turkestan and Malaysia. This 3-day conference was filled with talks by prominent speakers sharing their valuable experiences and knowledge. On the first two days, workshops and teambuilding activities were also included. The event ended with a full day tour of Penang.

Sharing Moment with Successful Entrepreneurs KDU Penang UC students were treated to an eye-opening session in 2017 as two established entrepreneurs shared their experiences and insights on having a start-up business. Clarence Leong, founder and CEO of easyParcel, was a Top 10 entrepreneur in 2016’s JCI CYEA (Creative Young Entrepreneur Award) and recently received Merit for SOBA (Star Outstanding Business Award). Leong Shir Mein, CEO of Delivereat, was Top 10 in a list of remarkable female entrepreneurs (Vulcan Post).

Business Start-Up Coaching Day The KDU Business Startup Coaching Day was held on 21 April 2017, featuring highly-experienced speakers Dr Supi Yeoh and Mr Richard Oon Hock Chye, who both have years of invaluable experience in their respective fields. Attendees were taught the fundamentals of how to achieve their dreams of running their own business, beginning from the start-up level.

The Business Challenge Workshop The Business Challenge Workshop, in collaboration with Malaysian Global Innovation & Creativity Centre (MaGIC), was held on 14 September 2017. The attendees took part in activities that challenged their innovative thinking skills, as well as their critical decision-making skills. At the end of the workshop, as a gold standard test of a balance between innovation and practicality, students pitched plans and new ideas.

WORKING WITH & WITHIN COMMUNITIES

“Start Today, Save Tomorrow” Mud Ball Project Organised by Junior Chamber International (JCI) Batu Kawan and co-organised by KDU Penang, “Start Today, Save Tomorrow” Mud Ball Project was held at Sungai Jawi, on 14 October 2017. JCI Batu Kawan and KDU Penang spent two months preparing for this event. Lecturers and staff from KDU Penang took a week to run workshops on environmental protection and river pollution awareness at secondary schools in Seberang Perai Selatan. The preparation of mud balls involved about 600 teachers and students as well as parents. The main objective was to create environmental awareness on clean and healthy rivers among students.

Staff Development Programme for SMJK Chung Ling KDU Penang’s senior lecturers from the School of Engineering, Computing and Built Environment conducted a staff development programme for 200 staff members (academic and nonacademic) from SMJK Chung Ling on the campus. Topics covered included “The Flipped Classroom and Instructional Video-Developing Using SOM” by Ms Ng Fong Chiu and Ms Tan Mei Hooi.

Hand-in-Hand for Penang Flood Victims Students and staff from KDU Penang collaborated with Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) to help victims when massive floods hit Penang in early November 2017.

The Student Service Department (SSD) set up a donation box to collect essential items, money and cleaning accessories. Together, they cleaned KDU Penang’s lecturer Mr Saravanan Maniam’s house in Bukit Mertajam, which was inundated.

Another team of 20 KDU Penang students helped prepare food and packed essential items for victims at Dewan Besar, Sungai Dua.

Community Service Accompanied by Fun and Games! Twenty students from KDU Penang were involved in the Community Service of International Scout Exchange Program for Chung Ling High School Penang and Zhonghua Secondary School Singapore. Lead by Ms Ng Fong Chiu, senior lecturer of the Department of Computing, the event saw about 80 students participating in the project.

KDU Penang Launched Christmas Donation to Charity Organisations Due to the overwhelming response, members of the Engineering Society of KDU Penang again held a charity event called Rudolph’s Shoebox to celebrate Christmas last year. Rudolph’s Shoebox encouraged students and staff to place gifts around the Christmas tree at the foyer. The gifts were donated to Kechara Soup Kitchen Penang and St Joseph’s Home Penang.

The Engineering Society also raised funds for both charities to help them get some extra cash for the holiday season. The Christmas tree and Snowman built with recycled plastic cups remained at the foyer until the end of the year.
