SharifStudy A way to Study Malaysia
University Science Malaysia (USM), founded in 1969 as the country’s second university, was formerly known as University Pulau Pinang. USM part time master courses include social sciences, humanities, and education. They also cover natural sciences, applied sciences, medical and health sciences, pharmaceutical sciences, and building science and technology.
The choice of whether to attend college full-time or part-time is one of the most important ones. However, it is a possible choice for only Malaysian students. Financial circumstances, other commitments, work and family obligations, and other factors might all influence that choice. The majority of graduate and nontraditional students, including those who are parents or full-time workers, enroll in part-time classes.
There are plenty of master part-time programs and courses at USM university as follows:
