University guide for Bangladeshi applicants
Explore Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), also searched as University of Kuala Lumpur. Choose the programme and specialist institute together: the university name alone does not identify where your course is taught.
Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL) is Malaysia's leading technical university, established in 2002 and wholly owned by Majlis Amanah Rakyat (MARA), an agency under the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development. UniKL operates under a unique "One Institute, One Specialisation" framework, housing specialised institutes across Malaysia that combine high-level academic study with practical technical training.
With over 29,000 students across its specialized campuses, UniKL collaborates closely with major global industrial leaders—such as Airbus, Thales, BMW, and Microsoft—to ensure curricula remain at the forefront of industry needs. Graduates benefit from hands-on laboratory experiences, industry certifications, and top graduate employability rates nationwide.

The stored UniKL chart includes an INTAKE column beside the institute. Confirm the next available international intake and application deadline with that institute rather than assuming all campuses follow one timetable.
Use UniKL's international entry-requirement guidance as a starting point and request the detailed requirements for your selected programme. Confirm qualification equivalence, subjects and English evidence; do not assume domestic funding schemes apply to Bangladeshi applicants.
Prepare your qualification certificates, subject transcripts and any English-test results for assessment. Confirm the exact programme, campus, study mode, academic conditions and international application deadline together. This guide does not establish a universal HSC grade or IELTS waiver.
Plan the student visa document requirements
A scholarship or adjusted-fee entry in a schedule is not proof that every applicant qualifies. Request the named award, eligible programme and intake, application deadline and continuation requirements. Keep the approved award and final fee offer together. Read the Malaysia scholarship guide.

Malaysia positions are calculated among the 32 institutions listed by QS under Malaysia in its World 2027 table. This is not a separate government ranking. An = sign marks a tie. Institutions in the same world-rank band share a national position range because their exact order is not published.
QS World and QS Asia use different methods. Overall university positions do not establish the ranking of a particular BBA, IT, MBA or other program.
