Information for new staff
Thank you for choosing the University of Nottingham Malaysia.
Whether you have just arrived at the University, or you have been here for a few months, you will be invited to one of our regular Welcome Events. The welcome event is an opportunity for you to meet other new colleagues, learn more about the University's plans and progress and the University's central support services.
We hope the induction checklist for new staff and the information collected below is a useful reference during your induction period at UNMC.
A welcome note from the Provost
It's a great pleasure for me to welcome you to the University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus. As a full campus of the University of Nottingham, we offer a British style education, delivered within a truly international campus community, which is physically located close to one of South East Asia's most vibrant cities - Kuala Lumpur. Around 5000 students from over 70 countries are studying for a range of programmes from Foundation to PhD across 17 different Schools and Departments. They are able to meet, work and socialize with people from different academic backgrounds, different cultures and different countries.
Professor Christine Ennew, Provost and CEO
Our students are encouraged to take full advantage of this environment - to make mew friends and broaden their understanding of our increasingly globalised world. Our goal is that ultimately, they will leave the University with both a high-quality degree which is valued by employers and with a new outlook on life and a greater understanding and tolerance of different cultures, races, religions and beliefs. As staff, we are committed to making their time with us both academically rewarding and socially enjoyable.
So too, I would encourage all new staff to take advantage of the diversity of the opportunities offered by the University, both professional and personal. Universities are many things - places for learning and study, places for research, places for culture, places for living - but above all, Universities are communities - welcome to yours!
