Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering with Honours

This program is designed to equip students with:

• A globally recognized and accredited education in Mechanical Engineering, built on a strong foundation of modern engineering practices.
• Comprehensive knowledge of Mechanical Engineering through hands-on projects, advanced coursework, and access to state-of-the-art facilities that enhance practical learning.
• Essential skills to design, plan, and develop mechanical systems or prototypes using industry-standard simulation software, preparing students for seamless entry into a fast-evolving workforce.

General Requirements

Any qualification that APU accepts as equivalent to the above.

Note: The above entry requirements may differ for specific programmes based on the latest programme standards published by Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA). The qualification and entry requirements for the programmes will be determined based on the "Comparison List of Equivalency of International Qualifications with SPM (O-Levels equivalent) and STPM (A-Levels equivalent)" published by Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA).

Candidates who wish to study Engineering Degree course must not be color blind or physically handicapped which makes him/her unable to conduct experimental/practical work and affect the learning process leading to potential errors towards professional practice as well. This is in line with the requirements of engineering professional bodies where safe engineering practices is mandatory. All International Students need to go through EMGS Medical Screening, if the student is found to be color blind; the Medical Screening maybe failed.
