For the last 36 months I am here at AIMST
and it has been a very good experience so far.
University campus is in an excellent location
with a scenic view around; the university
gives you a true Malaysian experience. People
here are truly friendly and as time has gone
by, I have started to enjoy my stay here more
and more. AIMST with its good research
facility, excellent infrastructure, diversity
of so many cultures, friendly and helpful
lecturers and staff have provided me with a
lot of motivation towards my research. I am
looking forward to a having a great time here
in Malaysia, thanks to AIMST.

As a foundation student, I joined AIMST in
2008 and successfully graduated in October
2014. It was a wonderful transition from
a teenager to an adult whereby I learnt
to be independent and became more
knowledgeable, went through ups and
downs but learnt to tackle them.
I would like to thank my lecturers, faculty
members, and friends who were always
ready to help whenever I needed them and
without whom I wouldn’t have made it this
far. I would also wish all my friends the very
best of luck as they are soon starting their
housemanship.
My 6 years in AIMST, the memories I will
always cherish..!

My journey at AIMST University was a rather
long one. I was here for 9 years. Overall
it was a pleasant and enjoyable journey.
Although pleasant but it was not always
smooth. There were ups and downs, but
what I liked about this university (especially
about my faculty) is that faculty accepts their
shortcomings. Based on the feedback from
students, faculty takes necessary steps to fix
the loopholes to improve. This style of faculty
was admirable; because, shortcomings are
common as this is rather a new university.
Delightful and impressive attitude of faculty
member to adapt to students need and to
improve the students’ performance was
really appreciable. I think, it is essential for
the best quality education. I really enjoyed
my student life at AIMST and I am proud
that I was a part of this university. Thank you
AIMST!

I am currently a first year BSc Biotechnology
student. The choice of coming to Malaysia
particularly was intrigued with the way the
country’s diverse structure and the fusion
of culture. AIMST University provided the
basis of where I would put my foundation in
future prospects to achieve what I wanted to
pursue in life.
AIMST campus is beautiful and I have learned
lots of stuff and it has contributed a lot to
improve my knowledge that I had before.
Priority always goes to studies and I would
say that the lecturers and the students are
very cooperative and friendly. The lectures
are lively, engaging and their knowledge is
tremendous. The learning environment is
wonderful and all the facilities ensure that
the process is enjoyable. The spheres of
development are endless due to the fusion
of both theory and practical approach.
International office of the AIMST gave me
chance to learn more and I gained lots of
experience that helped me to change my
mindset on how work is done. Thank you
AIMST University, hope that I can make a
better difference once I graduate.

Biotechnology
Enrolled: 2013-2016
I am currently following a Biotechnology
bachelor degree after doing my entire high
school back in France. I decided to enroll
in a biotechnology program because I am
originally from a developing country. I am
thinking that my biotech degree will help
once I go back to my home country. I am
enjoying my program because the education
provided is of high quality; the whole AIMST
staff is really encouraging, helping and
determined to account me as a successful
student. Lecturers are really skilled to make
you interested into your programme, we do
not miss any information and can go deeper
on any topic studied on demand. I really
enjoy library, free Wi-Fi, high security, variety
of food such as Malay, Indian and Chinese.
I am fascinated by the facilities available at
AIMST. Thank you AIMST!

I am a 2nd year dental student. I am really
proud that AIMST University has such
tremendously good dental equipment not
only in the dental clinics but also in the
dental technology lab and simulation lab.
Undeniably, the lecturers are knowledgeable,
friendly and approachable.
As the saying goes, all work and no play
makes Jack a dull boy. In AIMST campus,
there is a wonderful sports complex where
one can swim in the Olympic-size swimming
pool, work out in the gym and many other
physical activities also can be done. As a
hosteller, staying in campus does make me
feel homesick sometimes. However, this has
made me more mature and independent
person. Therefore, university life in AIMST
has definitely been a good experience for me.
