Curtin University Malaysia

Curtin Malaysia is a completely unique location, an incredibly beautiful garden campus nestled between the world’s oldest rain forest and the South China Sea, featuring a picturesque man made lake and tropical sunsets that take your breath away.
Curtin Malaysia’s impressive 300-acre campus opened in 2002, in the suburb of Senadin, in Miri. The distinctively charming campus is set in the midst of open flatland that stretches all the way to the Baram River, where the Trans-Borneo Highway and the ASEAN Bridge links Miri to neighbouring Brunei. The campus is surrounded by lush greenery interspersed with man-made lakes and canals that attract a variety of migratory and water birds. An incredible variety of both ornamental and hardy indigenous trees and shrubs flourish on the grounds. This scenery reflects Sarawak’s environment of year-round tropical greenery and bountiful wildlife. Coupled with Miri’s famed sunsets and Senadin’s location away from the bustle of the city, the ambiance of the campus is tranquil, inspiring, and conducive for both work and study.
Curtin Malaysia is now entering its next phase of development spanning the next five years, during which its student population is expected to surpass 5,000. A state-of-the art Library and Auditorium complex, a signature work of architecture and new campus landmark, has already been completed. Incorporating a 400-seat auditorium and modern library facilities, it heralds an enrichment of campus life and the student and staff experience. Upcoming projects include the Federal Government-funded Miri BioValley Park being developed with the Sarawak Ministry of Industrial Development and housing the Curtin Malaysia Research Institute (CMRI), a new Faculty of Engineering and Science building, a multi-purpose teaching block, additional student accommodation blocks and a new gymnasium.
