What you actually study

The shared Malaysia education curriculum before specialisation

The primary core is the common starting point. Taylor's places Professional Practice 1 and 2 in year 2, then lists digital pedagogy, reflection and research in year 3. Your specialisation adds its own subjects to these units.

Year 1: education foundations

  • Philosophy and Curriculum Design
  • Education, School and Society
  • Teaching and Managing Diverse Learners in the Classroom
  • Learning, Assessment and Feedback

Year 2: professional practice

  • Professional Practice 1 (PP1)
  • Professional Practice 2 (PP2)

Year 3: inquiry and practice

  • New Pedagogies - Digital Tools and Resources
  • The Reflective Practitioner: Teachers Investigate Their Work
  • Action Research Project
  • Theory into Practice

Shared primary core only, not the full list for every specialisation. Taylor's also lists university core modules and flexible education choices, subject to availability and module prerequisites. International students' core includes Bahasa Melayu Komunikasi 2 and Citra Malaysia.

September 2026 schedule only

Malaysia education fees: a published baseline, not a 2027 quote

The downloadable fee schedule currently shows September 2026, with programme tables dated 14 August 2026. It has the same grand totals for all four education specialisations. We show that dated baseline rather than label it as a future intake price. A new offer needs a current schedule from Taylor's.

International schedule total, without service tax

RM127,096

About Rs29.54 lakh

Published total across nine terms for the September 2026 intake. Tuition within this total is RM107,232 (about Rs24.92 lakh). This is a complete schedule total, not an annual tuition figure.

International schedule total, with 6% service tax

RM134,328

About Rs31.22 lakh

The university's own with-SST total, with the tax exceptions reflected in its schedule. A separate subject-dependent Q-LIT certification fee is listed as RM600 (about Rs13,950).
Budget on your intake year. These are Taylor's approximate guide figures for an intake that has already started. They are not a confirmed cost for February, April or September 2027. Taylor's says fees can change with credit hours and annual revisions. We ask for the current total for your intake and selected specialisation before you decide.

Admission from India

Malaysia education entry checks for Indian applicants

Indian Class 12 board percentages are not printed on this programme page. We use your actual qualification to ask Taylor's for the equivalent route, rather than convert one of the listed scores ourselves.

Listed qualification routes from Taylor's programme page, checked 11 November 2026. These are guidelines, not an offer of admission.

A point we check for Indian applicants: the page also says candidates need BM and History passes at SPM level. It does not explain the application of that line to an Indian school qualification. We ask admissions which evidence applies to you rather than assume an exemption or a new subject requirement.

English evidence

5.0

Malaysia English evidence for Taylor's education degree

In the international-student English tab, Taylor's lists IELTS 5.0 or completion of a pre-university or diploma programme conducted in English. We confirm whether your English-medium qualification meets that route when reviewing your documents.

The choice changes the specialist modules. It does not change the published degree title: Bachelor of Education (Honours).

After the degree

Malaysia education placements and career directions

Taylor's names Taylor's International School, Garden International School, Australian International School Malaysia and Nexus in its teaching-placement network. Its wording is that students can undergo placements there. We do not treat that list as a promise of a particular school placement.

The university lists careers including primary school teacher, preschool teacher, special educational needs teacher, subject teacher, tutor, learning mentor, school administrator, educational researcher and corporate trainer. We confirm the qualification and registration rules for your intended country and role separately; a career list is not permission to practise.

Funding scope

Checking Malaysia education scholarships with your application

The programme page links to Taylor's scholarships. We check the current award criteria against your results, route and intake, rather than use a university-wide promotional amount as your budget.

We keep the admission check and the scholarship check separate, so your study plan is not built around an award that has not been confirmed.

Questions families ask us

Malaysia education at Taylor's: questions before choosing a route

Is Early Childhood Education a separate degree here?

Taylor's lists it as a specialisation within the Bachelor of Education (Honours). Its fee schedule has a separate table for that specialisation, with the same September 2026 total as the other three routes.

Are the fee figures for 2027?

No. The published schedule inspected for this page is for September 2026. We have labelled that date beside the totals. We need a current intake quote before treating a future intake price as confirmed.

Can I use an English-medium qualification?

The international English tab lists a pre-university or diploma completed in English as an alternative to IELTS 5.0. We ask Taylor's whether your qualification and evidence meet that wording.

Does the placement-school list mean I choose any school?

The university says students can undergo placements within its network. It does not promise a named placement to every applicant on the programme page.
