Diploma of Engineering Technology (Railway System)

For the Diploma of Engineering Technology in Railway System curriculum, the "2U 1i" idea is applied as a study method. In addition to a year of training attachment with the railway sector (2U1i), students will study theory for two years at UniKL MIDI. Competent railway workers, particularly in rolling stock and signalling and communications, will be produced by the railway industry through a combination of theoretical study and Work Based Learning (WBL) alongside industry.
