Albukhary International University (AIU) proudly announces a groundbreaking partnership with Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) in the United Kingdom. This collaboration marks a significant step in AIU’s mission to provide world-class education with a global perspective. Through this initiative, students will now have the opportunity to earn dual degrees, one from AIU and another from LJMU without extending the standard study duration.
Benefits for Students
The dual degree programme is designed to give AIU students a competitive advantage in the international job market. Graduates will benefit from:
- Two recognised qualifications from Malaysia and the UK.
- Enhanced career prospects in global industries.
- Exposure to international teaching standards and academic resources.
- Access to LJMU’s global alumni network and research opportunities.
AIU President, Professor Dato’ Dr. Abdul Razak Ahmad, emphasised that this partnership is a reflection of AIU’s commitment to providing affordable yet high-quality education that meets global industry needs.
Pathway to Global Opportunities
The dual degree programme will be available in selected disciplines, with students completing part of their studies at AIU and gaining the option to study abroad at LJMU. This pathway not only enriches academic knowledge but also provides invaluable cultural exposure. Applications for the inaugural intake under this programme are now open, with classes commencing in the upcoming academic year.
