The 600-acre education enclave is envisioned as “a Community of Best Practices in Academia”, adopting the best-of-breed approach in bringing world-class education to Malaysia. Consequently, it is aligned with the Ninth Malaysia Plan objective to promote Malaysia as a centre of educational excellence. It is conceptualised to be an academic hub comprising the whole ecology of education that encompasses pre-school, primary, lower secondary, upper secondary, pre-university and tertiary education.

Among the significant projects of EduCity are the iCarnegie-managed university, Al-Bukhary International University and the unique multi-varsity campus which is an enclave of the world’s best universities’ faculties.

 
EduCity will be a fully integrated knowledge-based hub comprising world class universities, knowledge-based industry leaders, industry centric R&D clusters, academia-industry action centre, international schools and colleges, living and recreational facilities and conference and exhibition amenities of world standing.
