The permanent purpose-built NUMed Malaysia campus is set within the EduCity lskandar, Iskandar Puteri, Johor. This dedicated international higher education hub is located 1km east of the Gelang Patah Interchange on the main Second Link Expressway. The Second Crossing Bridge to Singapore is only 8km from the site, and the city of Johor Bahru, 25km to the east, is easily accessed via the newly opened Coastal Highway.
Opened in 2011 by His Royal Highness Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, our 5.5-hectare secure campus is designed to replicate the look and feel of Newcastle, and comprises over 15,000m2 of academic space housing state-of-the-art facilities and innovations in medical learning and teaching technology.
Our facilities include lecture and seminar rooms, a laboratory and clinical skills complex, the learning resource centre, and the student cafeteria and recreation centre.
NUMed has its own managed student accommodation, which is truly multinational, multi-ethnic and multicultural.
The new accommodation is just a 5-minute drive from the campus, with free, regular transport provided. We provide transport not only between the accommodation and the campus, but also between the accommodation and the nearby facilities, including eateries, shopping centres, entertainment outlets and other recreational attractions.
The aim of NUMed Malaysia is to deliver a cost-effective medical programme of the highest quality in order to meet the needs of both our students and the regional health economy. We aim to translate the benefits of our academic endeavour for the benefit of Malaysian society and the greater Asian region.
