The Malaysia Program, a key Campus France program

Campus France has been driving the Malaysia Program for more than 20 years. The program is financed by two Malaysian ministries (Ministry of rural development - MARA, and Public Service Department - JAPA) to help each year several dozen Malaysian students graduate in French higher education institutions in engineering sciences or political science and management. A true success story, the success rate of students from this program exceeds 97%.

Campus France will cover from day 1 of the academic year 2024 the tailor-made education follow-up of about 250 students, versus 221 in 2023.
