One thing that makes it different at UTP

7-month internship and industry-based projects for substantial industrial exposure, hands-on embedded systems/electronic design work, and direct exposure to renewable energy and smart grid technologies — taught by industry-engaged academics.

The Research Behind It: Which area, centre and academics?

Not research-based (undergraduate programme); no specialisation tracks or research areas listed in this deck (the public page separately lists five specialisation tracks — Computer & Communication, Instrumentation & Control, Power Systems, Electronics & Devices, Renewable Energy — worth confirming these still apply).

Cost & Funding: Which scholarships and aid apply to this programme?

UTP financial-aid opportunities include YUTP Scholarship, YUTP Education Grant, YUTP Student Support Fund Bursary, TAZU and PTPTN, subject to eligibility and availability. External sponsorship opportunities may also be available.

Student Life: what should an applicant to this programme know?

Students should expect a combination of lectures, laboratory sessions, engineering projects, programming and practical work. The programme also includes team projects, community engagement and co-curricular activities, allowing students to develop technical and communication skills.
