CROSS-CAMPUS PROGRAMME
Students are given the opportunity to enrol in a few courses in participating universities. The
grades and credits obtained during this period are transferable (up to 1/3 of the total credits of
the curriculum). Currently, there are four participating universities i.e. Universiti Teknologi
Malaysia, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Universiti Malaya and Universiti Malaysia Sarawak.
The programme is open to undergraduates who have undergone a minimum of two semesters
of their studies with the following conditions:
(i) The total number of credits allowed to be taken is between twelve (12) and
sixteen (16) credits only.
(ii) The student should hold a minimum CGPA of 3.00 at the time of application.
(iii) The student is not a residence of or originated from the state where the
university that he/she intends to attend is located.
The student will not be charged tuition fees by the participating university but shall pay the
regular tuition fees at UTM. However, should the participating university provide
accommodation, the student will need to pay accommodation fees

Students are required to enrol and pass FIVE (5) PSC courses, to be eligible to graduate. Enrol the
PSC courses as follows:
COMPULSORY PSC COURSES (Enrol All 3 Courses)
SKTK 5113/SETK 5113 - Energy Life Cycle Cost and Emission Analysis
This course discusses life cycle cost analysis for energy conservation projects and emission
analysis through the life cycle of a product. It presents the principles, methodology and case
studies to develop an understanding of life cycle cost and emission analysis that can reduce
environmental impact and promote sustainable practice.
