Study part-time or full-time?
AeU gives the option of choosing part-time or full-time study.
Part-time, fully online learning mode enables you to study for AeU’s qualification without putting your life on hold. Whether you are a busy professional looking for the next career step or a school leaver wanting to start your career without sacrificing your education, fully online learning mode may be the solution you need.

For those who feel the need of face-to face contact with the academic members, there are tutorials for only once a month at the main campus and at any of our learning centres. Part-time, blended learning mode offers an immersive online learning experience with face-to-face classes and real time discussions. It blends the flexibility of online learning with rigour and quality of on-campus experience.

Some of our programmes are available in full-time, on-campus mode. Full-time programmes are generally shorter and only available at the AeU Main Campus in Malaysia.

Non-Malaysian students who are interested with the full-time study mode option will get assistance on visa and accommodation arrangements.

Whatever you want to study, part-time or full-time, online, blended or on-campus, we offer high level of flexibility - an approach that has enabled thousands of students to graduate entirely through part-time and full-time study.

If you have employment, family or other commitments, online learning gives you the flexibility to schedule your study pattern around these obligations, providing a world-class education tailored to your lifestyle.

You don’t need to attend lectures on-campus, so there are no accommodation or transport costs, and you don’t require a student visa.

  • You can enjoy quality education at an affordable cost. Tuition fees tend to be lower for blended learning programmes compared to on-campus programmes.
  • Your communication with peers and teachers is more effective. The online part of your studies allows you to easily communicate through instant messaging, mails and video calls.
