During the past 30 years FTMSGlobal has continually advanced the number of programs offered and the facilities provided for student study. FTMS now has thirteen campuses in ten countries built up over its 30-year history. However not content to stand still and in preparation for the gaining of University College status and associated projected growth and ever increasing standards, FTMS in Malaysia is moving to a new campus in Cyberjaya which is twice the size of the TPM campus. Cyberjaya is Malaysia’s high-tech global investment hub. FTMS will continue with their City centre campus in Central Market. The Cyberjaya campus has 134,000 sq.ft of floor space, allowing FTMS to leverage upwards all the facilities that students have become used to and, in preparation for the gaining of University College status, to offer much more besides. For the technically minded the new FTMS’s new building is set in a lush green landscape with water features, has a centralised air conditioning system, lifts, a gym, user-friendly disabled student/staff access and facilities and 24-hour security services. The architecture is strikingly ultra-modern and the building is fully fitted for university use. An imposing atrium to the main concourse of the building commands attention, lifts the spirits and prepares all who enter for a creative, positive, inspiring, ‘can-do’ time.

“The new campus at Cyberjaya will become the main campus and headquarters for FTMS in Malaysia and will provide support to the other Malaysian centres. As an MSC status organization it is most appropriate that FTMS’ main campus and headquarters are located in Cyberjaya.” stated the college’s principal, Dr Sajilal Divakaran.

FTMS College is well known for its affiliation with universities in the UK such as the University of East London (UEL), Anglia Ruskin University (ARU), Leeds Beckett University (LBU) and Oxford Brookes University (OBU) who offer programmes at both Bachelor and Master degree levels. Programmes offered at Bachelor level include Software Engineering, Computer Networks, Business Information Systems, Accounting and Finance and International Management and at Master level Computer Systems Engineering, MBA and Information Management. Upon the gaining of University College status new degrees will be offered within the disciplines of Information Technology, Accounting and Finance and Business as well as the discipline of Engineering. The college’s principal, Dr Sajilal Divakaran, also stated “Known as ‘the capital of creativity’ Cyberjaya is both a university city and a leading business centre and the ideal location for the forthcoming FTMS University College. As its name implies, it is a very high-tech centre. FTMS will be joining six higher learning institutions that have already made the move to Cyberjaya”.

Eagle view of Cyberjaya Campus Cyberjaya already has 23,000 students and is a student-friendly place. Easily accessible and with appropriate services and ambiance Cyberjaya has a population of about 75,000 of which 40,000 are knowledge workers. Since 56% of Cyberjaya’s population are relatively young, aged 20 to 44, there is a lot of potential for growth in student numbers. In contrast to Technology Park Malaysia campus the FTMS Cyberjaya campus will be in the centre of a hive of activity, close to shopping malls, street malls, restaurants, food outlets, coffee shops, high class hotels, banks and sports facilities as well as abundant graduate-type employment opportunities. Access to and from the campus is provided by a network of highways. It takes just 20 minutes to get to either the Kuala Lumpur City Centre or the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) from Cyberjaya. Access is also available by taking an express train (ERL) from KL Sentral to Putrajaya Sentral Station, and thereafter hopping onto a feeder bus to get to FTMS’s new campus. Cyberjaya’s Dedicated Transportation System (DTS) is also a convenient choice for knowledge workers and students commuting to and from Cyberjaya. A Park and Ride facility further encourages commuters to park their vehicles at designated car parks for free, and to use buses for their onwards journey around Cyberjaya. Apart from the above FTMS will also be working out the best way to make use of the FTMS buses to take students and staff to and from the new campus.
