Curtin Malaysia invites students to discover their future at Open Day

Miri – 18 May 2023 – Curtin University Malaysia (Curtin Malaysia) is excited to announce its upcoming Curtin Malaysia Open Day, which will take place at its campus from 6 to 8 July 2023.

This Open Day is a special one in that it is being held in conjunction with another major event, the three-day STEM Trailblazers Sarawak 2023 promoting STEM innovation and education, which Curtin Malaysia is hosting in partnership with the Sarawak Ministry of Education, Innovation and Talent Development (MEITD), and Swinburne University of Technology Sarawak Campus.

STEM Trailblazers Sarawak 2023 will also feature the Raspberry Pi Innovation Challenge 2023 for primary school teachers and students, so visitors will have the benefit of enjoying three exciting events over the three days.

According to event coordinator Nicholas Leong, it will be the first Curtin Malaysia Open Day since the last pre-COVID-19 event in 2018 and the first to be held over three days. It will be on a slightly smaller scale than previous years as it is being held concurrently with the STEM Trailblazers Sarawak. A significantly larger Open Day is planned for next year in conjunction with Curtin Malaysia’s 25th anniversary.

Leong said the event this year will continue to showcase Curtin Malaysia’s faculties and School of Pre-U and Continuing Education (SPACE), and there will be a Future Students Hub where potential students can find out about courses and scholarships and join tours of the campus.

“The Open Day will be the perfect opportunity for students from all backgrounds to experience all that the university has to offer and to find the perfect programme and environment that will help them achieve their academic and career goals,” said Leong.

Meanwhile, Curtin Malaysia’s Pro Vice-Chancellor, President and Chief Executive Prof. Simon Leunig said Curtin Malaysia is committed to academic excellence, innovation, and providing its students with the resources they need to succeed.

“Our Open Day is a chance for future students to see first-hand how our programmes, faculty, and facilities come together to create a world-class education that leads to successful and fulfilling careers,” said Prof. Leunig.

“Whether you are a student who is just beginning to explore your university options or you are ready to make a decision, the Curtin Malaysia Open Day is a must-attend event.”

Other highlights of the event include a wide range of food and beverage and retail booths, cultural showcases, industry showcases, live entertainment, and more. The industry showcases will be in addition to over 20 industry showcases at the STEM Trailblazers Sarawak, so there will be a very strong industry presence across the campus over the three days.
