Biography

The University College of Technology Sarawak (UCTS) is one of the new breed of technological-based universities in Malaysia. Founded in 2013, UCTS is the only university that is wholly owned by the Sarawak State Government. Located in the heart of Borneo, UCTS offers a broad range of professional and industry-linked academic programmes that are relevant to the unique requirements of Sarawak in particular and Malaysia in general. It is proud to be recognised as the only “home-grown” Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) university in Sarawak, with the aim to produce educated and highly skilled human capital for the new and emerging industries.

The University has invested heavily in teaching-learning facilities, especially state-of-the-art laboratories and equipment, information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and services, and other resources for research and development (R&D). Its R&D activities have very close links and collaboration with industry, local partner communities and government agencies.
