UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA

ACCOUNTING CLUB

(UMAC)

UMAC is a non-profit organisation founded in 1975

under the Faculty of Business and Accountancy of

University of Malaya. It aims to achieve recognition,

both locally and internationally, on its ability to produce

innovative, resourceful and highly competent

accountants who possess excellent communication

skills, interpersonal skills and have the passion to excel

and succeed in their careers.

As it is known, UMAC is rated as a 5-star student

club in University of Malaya, due to its professionalism

and continuous achievements of the accounting

undergraduates. UMAC serves as a platform for

members to foster relationships with each other and

cultivate the group learning culture and teamwork.

With this, it provides opportunities for members to

enhance their knowledge, skills and experience as well

as shaping them into good character with a positive

attitude and thus increasing their competitive

advantage.

UMAC Strategic Partner - ICAEW

ICAEW is a world leading professional accountancy body that provides leadership and

practical support to over 150,000 members in more than 160 countries. Our members are

ICAEW Chartered Accountants and use the letters ACA after their name. To be admitted

as a member, applicants must have acquired 450 days of relevant work experience and

pass a series of examinations. It is a prestigious qualification that gives you the

opportunity to learn while in full-time employment. This makes a strong

combination of studies and examinations complemented by business and professional

experience. Training is undertaken with one of our 170 Authorized Training Employers

(ATEs), which includes the Big 6 accountancy firms (Deloitte, Ernst & Young, KPMG, PwC,

BDO, Grant Thornton), Petronas and Genting. ATEs are only admitted into the ACA

programme after they have been assessed by a global panel that ascertained they meet

the high standards required by the ICAEW.

UMAC Strategic Institution - Sunway TES

Sunway TES Centre for Accountancy Excellence (CAE) was incorporated in 1994 as a

subsidiary of the Sunway Education Group. Sunway TES CAE has been widely recognised

as a key player amongst learning providers of professional accounting and financial

programmes in Malaysia and also in the region. We conduct internationally renowned

professional accounting programmes such as ACCA, CAT, ICAEW, CFAB, CIA, CPA, and

CFA. Established to promote excellence in accounting training in Malaysia, Sunway TES

CAE is a multilevel collaborative initiative between Sunway TES CAE and its strategic

partners which include professional accounting bodies (ACCA, ICAEW), global and local

professional accounting firms, public institutions of higher education and large

corporations. Our track record includes producing over 200 World Prize winners in ACCA,

CAT and ICAEW programmes, as well as national champion level winners among all types

WELCOME WEEK

Welcome Week is an orientation week organised by UMAC to welcome

first-year accounting undergraduates of University of Malaya and most

importantly, to provide them direct exposure to the university and faculty

environment, career field prospects and UMAC. It serves as a great platform

that assists them in making a smooth transition to our university and UMAC.

On the other hand, it provides an opportunity for the first-year accounting

undergraduates to interact with their batch mates.

impactful starting point for the first-year accounting undergraduates to instil

unity and acceptance within themselves in venturing their upcoming

university life.
