Message from Dean

Total Comprehensive Japanese style of learning!MJIIT was founded upon an initiative by the Malaysian and Japanese governments to establish an institution that offers Japanese-styled education in Malaysia. It is a newly established institute strategically located in UTM Kuala Lumpur. Being in UTM, MJIIT enjoys all the facilities within UTM including established research facilities and the support of experienced academic staff.

The institute offers undergraduate programmes, postgraduate and R&D activities leveraging on the strength of Japanese technology and education system which is based on intensive research, close relations between academicians and students, professional ethics and high-value work. MJIIT works closely with Japanese universi-ties and industries to create a strong culture and holistic approach in its programmes.

Welcome to the Malaysia-Japan International Institute of Technology (MJIIT), a new and vibrant entity at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) Kuala Lumpur, situated about 1.5 km from the iconic Petronas Twin Towers. Established on August 1, 2010, MJIIT draws its strength from the long established research university UTM, and a consortium of 26 well-established Japanese universities and is supported by various Japanese agencies.

MJIIT combines the advantage of the Malaysian systematic outcome-based education with the research-intensive approach of Japanese education. The relatively autonomous nature of MJIIT allows for greater innovation and creativity among its academic staff and students.

5S and KaizenSeiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu, Shitsuke - the learning concept of MJIIT, aimed at developing fundamental working qualities such as teamwork, responsibility, and resilience.

Exposure in JapanSelected undergraduate and postgraduate students will be given opportunities for a short-term attachment at industries for industrial training and at research laboratories for joint supervision in Japan.

K.E.S PedagogyUtilizes the “Knowledge-Experience and Self–Directed Learning” pedagogy which focuses on more class contact in lower years, and encourages independence in studies in later years.

Ningen-ryokuProvides a holistic approach for comprehensive character building, with emphasis on skills in communication, problem solving, responsibility and ethics in the programme curriculum.

Unique Approach to Empower Minds

Synergistic partnership with academia and researchers in 26 Japanese universities and 5 associate members from the Japanese government agencies and industries. Opportunities are available for joint student supervision and industrial experience in Japan. This experience will make MJIIT graduates highly employable.
