KUALA LUMPUR: A 10-year roadmap will be unveiled today by Tunku Abdul Rahman University College (TAR UC) detailing its strategies to scale greater heights from 2021 to 2030.
This comes on the heels of its recent status upgrade to a full-fledged university known as Tunku Abdul Rahman University of Management and Technology , which was announced on April 12.
“Without the support of the community and our alumni, there is no way we could have come this far. We hope we can get the continuous support of the community from all walks of life,” he stressed. Also present at the media briefing was TAR UC president Prof Dr Lee Sze Wei, who said the way forward for the varsity, as outlined in the roadmap, is to establish itself as a future-proof talent development hub with an Asean focus.
“This is what we call the Beyond Education philosophy. For us, talent is developed not just through professional training or academics, but also through learning beyond the classroom and formal curriculum. Lau: In the next 10 or maybe 30 to 50 years, we would need around RM1.5bil for building physical development and infrastructure.
“But due to prudent management over the years, we have accumulated some money which is sufficient to fund the construction of the RM200mil student centre. However, that does not mean we do not need to raise funds. In the next 10 or maybe 30 to 50 years, we would need around RM1.5bil for building physical development and infrastructure. So we still need the continued support of the community.”The varsity, said Prof Lee, is expanding its reach abroad, especially in Asean.
“We started this student loan in 1979 and since then, we have distributed about RM53mil which benefited 15,000 students,” he said, adding that the loan is interest-free.
