ABSTRACT

In Asia, the education industry of Malaysia is performing well in the education arena. Based on existing strength, Malaysia does have a potential to become region’s education hub. Currently, Malaysia is able to attract number of foreign students from various countries. However, foreign student’s number is likely to grow rapidly in the near future. Currently, there are more than 62 Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in the country (including satellite branches of the foreign universities) that offers biomedical degree programmes. Due to high competition, all HEIs are on their toes to maintain and or to improve the educational quality. In fact, in order to grow further, each HEI in Malaysia is putting-in-efforts to enhance the quality of their various biomedical and non-biomedical degree programmes by ensuring that the courses remains affordable for local as well as foreign students.
