“Holding a degree in Materials Technology with Management is like holding a master key to valuable safe deposit. This degree enables one to enter various industries such as Electronics, Plastics and rubbers, Metals, Consultancy, Instrumentation and many more. It also enables one to explore various departments in industry such as R&D, Process, Quality, Failure Analysis, Operation, Purchasing, Materials and so on. This is because; the course structure itself was derived in a way that will benefit both students and industries. The subjects offered are especially critical to industries such as Intel, Western Digital, AMD, Infineon, Seagate and many other Multinational companies in Malaysia. AIMST’s Materials Technology with Management degree is a sole survivor in Malaysian Industry.”

“Currently I'm working in an examination gloves manufacturing industry as a R&D head researcher/chemist. We mainly manufacture NR, NBR, PB and also PU gloves in very large scale and exporting about 80% of the gloves to countries like USA, Germany, Italy, Korea and many more. First of all, I'd like to thank to the course (Materials Technology) and the fantastic lecturers there because they have provided the basic knowledge for me to work in this industry. Subjects like polymer chemistry, surface chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, ceramic materials and some management stuff that I've learnt in that course really helps me out in research. As a result, I would say Material Science is very versatile course as we can gain lot knowledge there and be able to locate ourselves in a range of manufacturing industries.”

 “The Materials Technology programme is a dynamic programme which makes students knowledgeable in a range of subjects on Metals, Polymers, and Electronic and semiconductor materials. The fundamental knowledge imparted through this course has enabled me to secure a job as a process engineer. AIMST’s materials technology course equips students to present themselves well technically and also builds up management skills. This is a great advantage compared to other University graduates. I would say that AIMST University has a very dedicated and experienced team of lecturers both from the academic world and the industry which enables the students undergoing the programme to be ready for the challenges ahead in the industry as well as being ready academically.”

“Why should I choose Materials Technology with Management? I hardly see any vacancy in newspapers for ‘Materials Technology Engineer’ unlike other conventional engineering course? – This is what people think. My dear students, please understand that Materials technology in particular will cater for semiconductor, electronic, advanced materials, optoelectronic, polymer, R&D etc. With this course we usually turn out as process engineer, FA engineer, Mfg engineer, R & D engineer and many more in all the above mentioned industries! Any questions regarding this please contact me at 016 471 4400.”
