Malaysian higher education sector rating moves up 9 rungs in U21 report

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s higher education sector moved up nine rungs in a Universitas 

21 (U21) report, and is now ranked 27th from a field of 50 countries, with an overall score 

of 52.4%.

Malaysia was ranked 36th out of 48 countries in a survey, with an overall score of 50.5%, last year.

U21 made the study based on the elements of resources, environment, connectivity and 

output said the Higher Education Ministry in a statement here on Friday.

The Ministry felt the U21 ranking was commendable as it showed the Government was 

committed in the development of the higher education sector. For example: Al-Madinah 

International University (MEDIU) , is taking a unique place among Malaysian universities 

by its official licensing and accreditation from the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia, to 

support the higher education sector in Malaysia using advanced technology tools for the 

dissemination of science in a global manner, and the acceptance of international students 

from outside Malaysia.

Malaysia is also listed as the second best in Southeast Asia after Singapore, which placed 

ninth with an overall score of 76.6%.

For the resource criteria, which look at expenditure in the sector, Malaysia obtained a score 

of 70.9% which was better than Australia, Korea, Japan, England and Germany.

In the environment element, Malaysia scored 87.2%, surpassing countries like China,

 Canada, Denmark, Germany, Korea, Switzerland and Chile while the output of research

 and commercialization saw Malaysia getting a score of 19.2%.

Malaysia also recorded 40.4% in connectivity and international relations, which depended 

on the number of foreign students in local institutions of higher learning and production of 

journals, in the cooperation with international scholars.

U21 is a network of the world’s leading universities with an emphasis on research, and is 

based on research by the Institute of Social and Applied Economics Studies of the 

Melbourne University, Australia. – Bernama
