Malaysia Education Blueprint 2015 - 2025 (Higher Education) Published by: Kementerian Pendidikan Malaysia No. 2, Menara 2, Jalan P5/6, Presint 5 62200 Putrajaya Malaysia www.moe.gov.my MALAYSIA EDUCATION BLUEPRINT 2015-2025 (HIGHER EDUCATION) Education has been key to Malaysia’s rapid development. It has provided our citizens with the knowledge, skills, and competencies that have propelled our growth and, with it, our prosperity. However, if we want to achieve our goal of becoming a developed nation by 2020, we must increase both access to and the quality of higher education in Malaysia. Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib bin Tun Haji Abdul Razak Prime Minister of Malaysia Foreword We have made significant progress in higher education, particularly since the Government decided to establish a separate Ministry of Higher Education in 2004. Higher education enrolment has increased by 70% to 1.2 million students over the last 10 years. The growth rate of research output and quality has been one of the highest in the world, and Malaysian institutions are ranked strongly amongst our Asian peers. Malaysia is also now a top 10 destination for international students. Investing in Malaysia’s youth is an imperative. Malaysia must adapt in order to thrive in an increasingly competitive global economic environment. This includes the transformation of Malaysia’s higher education system. The jobs of tomorrow will require a greater emphasis on STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and proficiency in English is required to support higher-income jobs and raise competitiveness. The commercialisation of ideas and industry research partnerships to propel innovation is a necessity. In addtion to that, a sustainable funding model with clear outcomes, incentives, and support for those who need it most is critical. That is why we have adopted the Malaysia Education Blueprint 2015-2025 (Higher Education), which will transform Malaysia’s higher education system to meet these new challenges. I would like to express my appreciation to the Ministry of Education, the leaders of all higher learning institutions, and all those who have contributed to its development. It is a clear, compelling, and ambitious plan which will guide Malaysia through to 2025 and beyond. The Government cannot transform the higher education sector alone. That is why the private sector will be encouraged to provide faculty and design curricula that are tightly linked
