About us

In 2014 it introduced a 2nd Transcript which provides recognition for students’ extra-curricular involvement - a first in Malaysia and in the Southeast Asia region. The Taylor’s Second Transcript complements and supplements the Academic Transcript in providing expanded opportunities for students to develop intellectual, life-skills and emotional/social development. It provides formal recognition and rewards for students’ extra-curricular achievement both on and off campus.
 
Benchmarked against global best practices, the programme runs alongside the formal curriculum, and it culminates with the awarding of both the Academic Transcript and the Second Transcript. The programme helps students develop future works skills – proficiencies and abilities required across different jobs and work settings.
 
Taylor’s has also adopted transformative teaching approach that allow students to learn through smart devices in a self-directed and personalised manner, anytime anywhere – enabling them to review recorded lectures and access to notes whenever they need them. Students learn in X-space, technology-rich collaborative classrooms designed to facilitate learning in a highly collaborative and engaging manner.
 
In 2013, Taylor’s became the first university in Asia to roll out Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), an extension of its e-learning initiatives that benefit people from every part of the world. The courses not only make learning interactive, but interesting for today’s generation who appreciates flexible learning.
 
Taylor’s continues to play a strong role in developing human resource capital. Currently, it has a 70,000-strong alumnus that continues to grow annually, and many of them are now leaders in their respective fields.
