University of Reading Malaysia’s state-of-the-art branch campus in EduCity Iskandar Johor offers students the same high quality education at a more affordable cost.
IN today's interconnected world, the pursuit of higher education knows no bounds.
The University of Reading is a distinguished institution in the UK and brings its legacy of excellence to Malaysian shores, offering students a head start towards a promising future.
However, the rising living costs and unfavourable exchange rate may hinder access to a UK education.
With that said, students now have a gateway to the UK education sphere through the University of Reading Malaysia.
It stands as a beacon of opportunity for those seeking top-tier education on home soil, emphasising high-quality teaching, groundbreaking research, and impressive graduate employability.
Additionally, this option is more accessible and affordable, ensuring aspirations for higher education need not be constrained.
Strong track record
The University of Reading (UK) is the ideal choice for students from various pre-university backgrounds – IGCSE, A-Level, SPM or STPM.
Renowned for its high-quality teaching, research and graduate employability, it earned global ranking of 61 for Global Impact 2023 by Times Higher Education.
This ranking assesses universities’ commitment to delivering the UN SDGs.
The University of Reading featured across seven of the 17 SDGs and scored second highest for its contribution to supporting responsible production and consumption and their sustainable use of resources.
These accolades reflect the institution's dedication to making a difference beyond academic realms.

Fortunately, students do not have to travel to the UK nor incur substantial financial burdens as the university offers the same journey at its wholly-owned international branch campus in Malaysia, located in EduCity, Iskandar Puteri, Johor Baru.
