Cyberjaya University College of Medical Sciences (CUCMS) has continued its winning streak by scooping up yet another win, this time the Brand Laureate SME Best Brands Award 2015/16 in the Medical & Healthcare Education category. Organized by the Asia Pacific Brands Foundation, the annual award highlights firms that have committed themselves to their brand promise and have achieved success in communicating this vision to their stakeholders.

Professor Dato’ Dr. Mohamad Abdul Razak, President and Vice-Chancellor of CUCMS who was on hand to receive the award shared his appreciation, “I am proud of today’s win but more importantly I am proud of our university staff and lecturers who made this possible”.

 

Kalaiarasu Malayandi, the University’s Bursar articulated, the importance of this achievement. “Branding is as much an effort to live up to our student and stakeholder’s expectation as it is in communicating a vision. Today’s win is not just a corporate achievement but rather it signifies the results of concerted efforts by all lecturers, staff, management and stakeholders in enhancing the delivery of quality education to our students”, he said.

 

Since its takeover by the SMR Group, a public listed company, the university has executed a successful turn-around operation and in recent years have posted growing students numbers and strong financials.

Moving ahead, the university is looking forward to expanding its range of programmes to meet the critical needs of Malaysia’s fast growing healthcare industry. A new purpose built campus is also expected to be operational by 2017 which will see the university’s capacity double to over 7,000 students.
