Voices From UTMy

Learning with a wealth of originality

We challenge modern society's complex issues on a daily basis by combining scientific knowledge, techniques, and data from basic scientific perspectives.

We students can freely choose the problems that we want to resolve, using realistic scientific methods to produce actual solutions.

Acquiring the ability to advance the future through this type of unique learning experience attracts me!

A new and stimulating environment

UTMy has a multinational student body with students from many different backgrounds. We can speak four different languages (English, Malay, Chinese, and Japanese) in this stimulating and refreshing environment.

Immersion within this multicultural society is a valuable opportunity to encounter diverse values. Through this, students can broaden their perspectives and have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of different cultures.

I firmly believe that learning through PBL and polishing my language skills will be great advantages in my future career.

Did internship at Pertama Farroalloys

  One thing that impressed me most was how the relationship between the Sarawak state government and the federal government can change laws and systems, and how those changes affect business activities. I was surprised that basic business conditions, such as electricity prices and regulations, can change depending on the relationship between governments. This experience helped me understand that geopolitics is closely connected to business.

Did internship at Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC)

Throughout the internship, I carried out several tasks related to sustainability research and analysis. I studied important regulatory frameworks such as the Climate Risk Management and Scenario Analysis (CRMSA) policy and the TCFD Application Guide. I also reviewed internal disclosure materials produced by SMBC MY, including the Climate Related Disclosure 2025 report. In addition, I analyzed sustainability reports issued by ten Malaysian banks and conducted a comparative analysis between their disclosures and those of SMBC MY. Based on these comparisons, I prepared recommendations aimed at enhancing SMBC MY’s sustainability disclosures and communication practices.

In Malaysia, a multi-ethnic society, diverse religions, languages, and cultures coexist, mutually respecting each other while cherishing their own values. This is why the country is called Rojak (a Malaysian fruit and vegetable salad) rather than a Melting Pot. It's only natural that the papaya in the salad is different from the cucumber. What truly matters is not “reading the air,” but continuing dialogue while acknowledging differences—a place where you can experience this firsthand. At UTMy, students pursue their individual interests and passions. University life in an environment where diversity is the norm will broaden your horizons and provide an opportunity to reexamine the cultures and societies you grew up in. We look forward to seeing what new worlds you discover at UTMy.today's technology? At UTMy, let's unlock your full potential!

Many people probably think that to enter university, you have to choose one specific academic field! At UTMy, you won't be bound by such constraints. I myself have moved between physics, business administration, and engineering at the University of Tsukuba, yet I still constantly feel that my knowledge and skills are insufficient to tackle cutting-edge research.

The progress of digital technology is particularly remarkable, and the world is changing at an accelerating pace. Academic fields also rise and fall, constantly undergoing reorganization. Relying solely on domestic or a single field will make it difficult to thrive in the coming era. To shape what will become commonplace in the future, why not tackle the world's social challenges head-on with today's technology? At UTMy, let's unlock your full potential!
