ADTP @ Sunway University College

At Sunway University College, we offer a ‘True-Credit Transfer Program’ to Western Michigan University as well as transfers to other U.S., Canadian and Australian universities based on credits earned. This program provides the opportunity for students to choose the combination that best suits their needs.

Using almost the exact syllabi and course curricula of our collaborator partner, Western Michigan University (WMU), our students are guaranteed acceptance into this prestigious institution through a true-credit transfer arrangement. The quality of our ADTP is assured as we adhere to the WMU syllabi and our examination papers are moderated by WMU. Credit transfers will thus be benchmarked against quality.

As WMU is widely recognized in the United States, our students will also have the flexibility to transfer their credit hours to other top U.S. and Canadian universities, should they decide not to have the benefits of twinning with WMU. Moreover, our program is fully accredited by the Ministry of Education (MOE), Malaysia.ADTP at Sunway University College provides students with exposure to: • Flexibleandadaptableeducationalsystem,whichincludesinteractive

HighereducationintheUnitedStatesencompassesproficienciessuchasEnglish,Mathematics and Computer Science. It also requires students to take a range of General Education subjects covering the liberal arts and humanities, on top of their major courses. The main purpose is to ensure that students develop a well-rounded education.

General Education subjects are normally taken during the first two years of studies, together with proficiencies and some core subjects in their respective degrees. The remaining of their major core and elective subjects will be taught in the U.S.

Student performance is continuously assessed through participation, quizzes, tests, assignments, projects, presentations and final written examinations. The weightage given to continuous assessment is 60 percent, while the final examination component accounts for 40 percent. The performance indicator is expressed as the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA), which signifies the average grade of courses attempted and academic standing. One credit hour in the U.S. education system is equal to one clock hour of class per week for a duration of 14 weeks.

Academic Faculty and ResearchAbout 30 percent of our faculty members are doctoral degree holders and another 30 percent are currently in their various stages of completing their doctoral degrees. Most are engaged in research in their respective fields of mathematics, engineering, history, chemistry, computer science, finance, psychology and environmental science. With their research and teaching experience, they are able to encourage students to actively apply research to their studies, so as to better understand and appreciate their academic courses.

“The lecturers and students in my course were fantastic throughout my time in ADTP Sunway. Everyone was so active throughout the semester. ADTP provides a

good education system as it helps to balance your study and social life and you will have plenty of time for both. I personally enjoyed and loved every moment of it!”.

The program makes sure that you are well equipped to undertake whatever it is that lies ahead and it also leaves you with treasured experiences and memories. The hefty task of selecting the ideal university, sending in applications, and attending visa interviews were made considerably easier with the help of the ADTP staff. The resources and information made available to students made this substantial task much easier to handle.”

“Overall, the ADTP at Sun-U was good and enriching. I have to give credit to all the lecturers for assisting me from the beginning. They were always very friendly and helpful. They did not restrict themselves to only classroom issues but were always ready to lend a helping hand in other matters, such as university application. I am assured of the high quality and standard of the courses taught here as all courses are similar to those offered in WMU. As such, transferring credits to other reputable universities would be easier. “

“Sun-U’s ADTP provided me with interactive and intellectually stimulating classes, taught by highly qualified lecturers. I made many great friends and engaged in extra-curricular activities. These experiences helped me transfer to a prestigious university in the US. Sun-U provided me with an incredible experience, without which I believe I would not be where I am today!”

SEAN YAP (Malaysian)Accepted into Chapman University to pursue a Bachelor of Arts in Film Production (Intake: Fall 2009)

“It’s not an overstatement to say that American education helps produce well-rounded students: you’re not going to just study courses within your major; you will need to expose yourself to other subjects and fields as part of the curriculum...expand your horizons! Since the ADTP at Sun-U has a relatively small community, you’re more likely to get personal attention from your teachers. I’ve certainly made friends from across the board, from aspiring psychologists and journalists to potential engineers and financial analysts. Sunway is filled with opportunities and challenges. Seize every moment to discover who you are, keep an open mind with a willingness to learn. I’ve watched myself grow so much here, and I’m sure you will too.”
