  • University of Greenwich and Segi University and Colleges
    Review of UK Transnational Education in Malaysia: University of Greenwich and SEGi University and Colleges October 2019 Executive summary The University of Greenwich (UoG) has partnered with SEGi University and Colleges for the delivery of 29 franchised programmes to around 2,000 students across five campuses in Malaysia. The partnership has developed over 20 years and is one of the largest partnerships of UoG. The large scale of the partnership and the multiple programmes offered are the model that UoG would like to develop with other institutions over the coming years. The arrangement is a franchise where the partner (SEGi) delivers a programme that is already being offered at UoG. UoG provides the programme structure and teaching materials, approves teaching staff and moderates assessed work. UoG is the awarding body and has full responsibility for quality assurance and has processes for initial approval and ongoing monitoring of the partnership at both an operational and strategic level. SEGi provides the teaching staff and facilities and is responsible for marketing and general student support. Each college provides its own support to students. The UoG has link tutors and a full-time member of staff based in Malaysia. Together these form an effective link between the University of Greenwich and SEGi Colleges. The UoG programmes are offered at five different college campuses and each has different facilities. In some cases, different colleges have different practices even when offering the same programme, which can lead to a different experience for students. Although there is a formal student representation structure, this is not an effective process for listening to or responding to the student voice and is an area for development.

Corresponding address: Mohammad Nazmul Hasan Maziz Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This descriptive cross-sectional study is aimed at studying the comparison on knowledge and misconceptions about HIV/AIDS among the Malaysian undergraduate students at SEGi University, Kota Damansara, Malaysia. Data was collected from a stratified random sample of 180 students using a validated questionnaire survey which included a socio-demographics section and four sub-sections of 36 questions which assessed the general knowledge, general public perceptions, the respondent’s views on the measures to prevent the disease and misconceptions related to the disease. The data were analysed by using the SPSS software, and Chi-square test was used to find the p-value for each of the questions. The average mean score assessing the knowledge of the Malaysian students in SEGi was 81.48%, where the Health Science students scored 44.31% with a standard deviation of 0.015 and the Non-Health Science students scored 37.17% with a standard deviation of 0.036.
