Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), which was officially established on 16 February 1984, is the sixth Malaysian public university. It is the only university that was set up to specialise solely in management education from the very beginning of its establishment.
A restructuring of the university academic system was undertaken with the express purpose of preparing a strong structure that wo...uld enable the increase in the number of postgraduate students and the hoisting of the UUM flag in the international academic arena. The university sees the need to be global in practice and content since the knowledge it generates and purveys transcends and extends far beyond the borders of Malaysia. In this restructuring exercise, 13 faculties were merged and streamed into 3 main Academic Colleges, namely UUM COB (UUM College of Business), UUM CAS (UUM College of Arts and Sciences), and UUM COLGIS (UUM College of Law, Government and International Studies).
The university provides several facilities for sports and recreational activities for all students and staff as a part of the objective to develop a physically and mentally healthy community. In its quest to develop well-rounded individuals, the University has an extensive array of sports and recreational facilities, which include an Olympic-size swimming pool, a mini-stadium with a state-of-the-art running track, an archery range, shooting range, badminton, tennis, basketball, volleyball, rugby, hockey, softball, handball and netball courts as well as football fields. UUM is the only university in Malaysia that has a go-kart circuit and provides recreational facilities for canoeing, jogging, cycling, jungle trekking, climbing, abseiling and camping.
University Utara Malaysia was established to primarily develop and promote management education in the country. Its academic programmes are especially geared towards providing a broad spectrum of academic knowledge and intellectual skills in the area of management, accounting, economics, information technology, public administration, human resource management, entrepreneurship, finance and banking, law, marketing, management of technology, communication, social work, multimedia, education, decision science, international affairs, business management, tourism, muamalat administration, development management, logistics and transportation, hospitality, risk and insurance management, media technology, agribusiness management science, business mathematics, industrial statistics and counseling.
In addition to its core business of providing quality teaching, conducting extensive research, and promoting a culture of scholarly publications, the University will contribute to the social, economic and intellectual development of communities beyond the campus. The University has a crucial role to play when engaging the surrounding local communities in community-based projects, in developing or strengthening community-university partnerships through collaboration with other government agencies or the private sector.
