UTM has also consistently ranked first among public universities in Malaysia for the category of Premium-Earning Graduates (First Degree), with 18.5 percent receiving a premium income of over MYR 4,000 per month. Notably, a remarkable 85.4 percent of UTM graduates have been assessed to possess a High Skill Level, marking the highest percentage in Malaysia.
UTM's success in enhancing the marketability of its graduates is directly attributed to our proactive and strategic approach outlined in the UTM enVision 2025 Strategic Plan. This plan, supported by high-quality teaching and learning initiatives, has significantly increased the success of our graduates. The strategic and collaborative cooperation between the university and various sectors, including the private and public sectors, alumni, and local and foreign institutions, has also played a pivotal role in this achievement.
Moving forward, UTM is committed to empowering its graduates. Our goal is to cultivate individuals with strong competency values, who not only fulfil the demands of the job market but also prioritize the development of ethical values, manners, and identity, and have the potential to create new job opportunities.
For the record, the Ministry of Higher Education measures graduate employability rates by considering graduates who are employed, pursuing further studies, enhancing their skills, or awaiting job placement within six months of graduation.
