Students at a major college in Malaysia can now take a University of Bradford degree course without leaving their country following a new agreement between two institutions.

INTI College, based in the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur, is a network of independent colleges based on and around the main Malaysian peninsular.

The University's School of Engineering, Design and Technology has been welcoming international students to its courses in Bradford from Malaysia for more than ten years.

But thanks to a new franchise agreement between the school and INTI College signed in Kuala Lumpur by the Vice-Chancellor of the University, and the President of the College - students there will be able to take the exact same degree as students do in Bradford.

Dean of the School Professor Andrew Day said: "This is great news for us and for INTI College".

"But it is also recognition of the quality of the courses which we are offering".

INTI College students will be able to take bachelors or masters degrees in electronics and telecommunications, civil engineering, mechanical engineering and personal mobile and satellite communications (PMSC).

The INTI College agreement is the first international franchise collaboration that the school has established and joins a number of other similar collaborations in other schools across the university.

Professor Day added: "We have had a long relationship with INTI College, and I am delighted that we are moving on to this greater collaboration which is of strategic importance to both institutions".

INTI College academic staff have already received training in Bradford to deliver the course.

Students will even enjoy a University of Bradford graduation ceremony to be held in Malaysia.
