Faculty of Allied Health & Sciences

About Faculty

Allied Health Sciences are defined as medical professionals who work to diagnose, prevent and treat diseases or illness. We offer national accredited graduate programmes in Nursing and Health Sciences. We are privileged to be one of the few institutions in Malaysia to be recognised by the Department of Occupational Safety & Health (JKKP) for our diploma and undergraduate programmes.

Our programmes offer students the opportunities to deal with all kinds of diagnostic techniques which are being used in the medical sector and are very crucial for the treatment of the patients. With diagnosis depending on technology, the role of allied health staff has become vital for delivering successful treatment.

The allied health professionals include all the paramedical technicians and supervisors in medical laboratories (microbiology, pathology, biochemistry, blood bank, etc.), operation theatre, neuro-physiology labs, radio-imaging, nutrition and optical laboratories. These people are actively involved in the proper analysis and diagnosis of the diseases, so that the physicians can correlate the symptoms with the diagnosis and they can treat the patient accurately.
