So it's officially I'm a college a girl (although I haven't start my orientation yet) but I already moved to my flat yippiekeyayay!
Self-campus tour 29th August 2014 )
Visiting my (very very) new campus at Putrajaya. Well let me tell you one thing, that my uni is a perfect place to study because it is placed in government area and yet, there's only a few people in it. But it's okay though. Okay before I give you all photos, let me introduce you my university (yeay).
Okay
so right now I’m going to talk about my future university, the place where I
will be studying for the next three years for bachelor. I’m taking Petroleum
Engineering at Heriot-Watt University Malaysia Campus. My university is
actually based on UK.

– The main campus)
(Dubai Campus)
“Heriot-Watt University’s name
commemorates two men ahead of their time. George Heriot, the 16th
century educational philanthropist and financier to King James and James Watt
the great 18th century engineer and inventor of the steam engine.
There were two successful, leading edge professionals of their time, whose
skills and attitudes are embedded in the ethos of the University today.
Heriot-Watt University Malaysia will provide a modern dynamic learning
environment as a branch campus of Heriot-Watt University. Headquartered in the
city of Edinburgh in the UK, Heriot-Watt is an institution with a very strong
heritage established in 1821, Heriot-Watt is rooted in the UK.
Heriot-Watt is divided into seven schools and one institute that coordinate its teaching and research:
- The School of the Built Environment, incorporating architectural engineering, civil engineering, structural engineering, construction management, surveying and urban studies;[29]
- The School of Engineering and Physical Sciences, incorporating chemical engineering, chemistry, electrical, electronic and computing engineering, mechanical engineering and physics;[30]
- The School of Life Sciences, incorporating applied psychology and biology;[31]
- The School of Management and Languages, incorporating accountancy and finance, business management, economics and languages;[32]
- The School of Mathematical and Computer Sciences, incorporating actuarial mathematics and statistics, computer science and mathematics;[33]
- The School of Textiles and Design;[34]
- Edinburgh Business School, which offers postgraduate courses at MBA, MSc and DBA level;[35] and
- The Institute of Petroleum Engineering, incorporating petroleum engineering and renewable energy technology.[36]
Heriot-Watt is known for the strong prospects of its students, with 80% in graduate-level jobs six months after leaving the institution.[41] . It came 1st in Scotland and 4th in the UK in the 2012 National Student Survey,[41] and saw the largest increase in UK applicants of any UK university for the 2013 academic session.[42] . In 2011, Heriot-Watt was named as the Sunday Times Scottish University of the Year 2011-2012, with the paper emphasising the employability of the institution's graduates.[41] In 2012, it was again Scottish University of the Year 2012-2013 for the second year running, and also became UK University of the Year for student experience.[43] . In 2014, it was ranked 13th in the UK and 2nd in Scotland by the Guardian University League Table,[44] and 4th in Scotland by the Complete University Guide.[45]
