About Universiti Multimedia, Kampus Johor
Multimedia University (MMU) is a private university in Malaysia. The university has three campuses, located in Melaka, Cyberjaya and Iskandar Puteri. The university hosts 9 faculties and 19 research centers.
In 1994, Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM), established the Institute of Telecommunication and Information Technology (ITTM) in Taiping, Perak. The first campus was established on TM's former northern region office where the first batch of 42 students were selected to undergo an experimental 2-year telecommunication engineering diploma program. In 1996, with the academic success of the first two batches, TM was invited by the Ministry of Education to set up the first private university in Malaysia. ITTM was granted university status and renamed itself to Telekom University.
TM was offered by the Government of Malaysia to establish a university in MSC Malaysia, then known as Multimedia Super Corridor, to catalyst the MSC program. A campus was set up in Cyberjaya and opened on July 8, 1999. The relationship between the Cyberjaya campus and the MSC is intended to be similar to the relationship between Stanford University and Silicon Valley. The university was renamed from Telekom University to Multimedia University.
In 2013, MMU established a third campus in Iskandar Puteri, Johor specializing in cinematic arts in collaboration with the renowned University of Southern California.
