Politeknik METro Johor Bahru

The Johor Bahru METRO Polytechnic (PMJB) came into operation on April 01, 2011 and is the third METrO Polytechnic to be established by the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia after the Kuala Lumpur METrO Polytechnic (PMKL) and the Kuantan METrO Polytechnic (PMKU). The existence of the METrO Polytechnic extends access to education and training to SPM graduates as well as working adults.

The education program offered by PMJB aims to meet the demand in the services sector. The sector is experiencing rapid growth and is expected to continue to grow in the future. PMJB's permanent parliament is located in the Iskandar Malaysia development region. Iskandar Malaysia is a development corridor that is the flagship economic project of the Malaysian government.

The services sector is a major pillar of Iskandar Malaysia's economy. PMJB is committed to developing innovative human capital from Johor Bahru residents especially Malaysians in support of Iskandar Malaysia's economic activities.

The establishment of the METrO Polytechnic is in line with the National transformation agenda which is to increase competitiveness through the development of high-income economies, especially in terms of generating a versatile and capable human capital in a dynamic working market environment. The target students are SPM graduates and working adults who need up-skilling and re-skilling.
