The degree at a glance
Malaysia electrical engineering at MMU: the degree in brief
MMU describes this four-year course as a broad foundation in the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity, with a push towards renewable and sustainable energy. It says electrical engineers also design smart grids, battery management systems, generators, power electronics and electric motors. Students start with mathematics, computing, electronics and circuit theory, move to power system analysis and high voltage engineering, and choose a specialisation in the final year. The degree sits in MMU's Faculty of Artificial Intelligence and Engineering (FAIE) at Cyberjaya. MMU lists the code as R3/0712/6/0023 (06/33) (MQA/FA4863), and says English is the medium of instruction.
What the register shows. The Malaysian Qualifications Register lists MQA/FA4863 for Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) Electrical at Multimedia University, 139 credits, field 0712 (Electricity and energy), from 01/01/2026 to 31/12/2031. We confirm the current status and the current award name before you apply.

Malaysia entry route for MMU electrical engineering from India
MMU lists entry by qualification and requires Mathematics and Physics on the school routes. It does not publish an Indian Class 12 mark for this degree.
Published routes
Source: MMU programme page. The UEC route needs Mathematics and Physics among the five subjects.
Diploma and other routes
MMU says DKM, DLKM and DVM candidates below CGPA 2.50 need at least two years of related work experience, and may be asked to take a bridging programme.
What this means for Class 12. The subjects that matter are Mathematics and Physics. We send your Class 12 subject list and marks to MMU and get the route confirmed in writing before you apply.
English evidence
Malaysia English requirement for MMU electrical engineering
MMU lists IELTS 5.0 for Bachelor of Electrical and Electronics Engineering with Honours. Its equivalency table puts IELTS 5.0 alongside TOEFL iBT 40 and PTE Academic 47, and it says MUET is the recognised English qualification for admission, with other tests approved by Malaysia's higher education department also accepted. MMU adds an English preparation programme for students who need to reach the score. We confirm which test and score apply to you.
