University Selangor (UNISEL), formerly known as Universiti Industri Selangor was established on August 23, 1999. UNISEL operate on two campuses, one at the main campus in Bestari Jaya, Kuala Selangor and the city campus Zircon Road, Section 7, Shah Alam. In the early stages, UNISEL only have three programs. At the end of 2011, the total of program increase to 89 programs.
Purpose
The purpose is to make an evaluation towards ISM program Bachelor of Information System Management UiTM and also to make comparison with Bachelor of Information Technology Knowledge Management in Unisel. The reasons chose is to make a comparison of this university because want to study the difference between public and private universities that offer almost the same cost. The reason to make this comparison is because of if there is a deficiency in UiTM in term of subject, may be UiTM can take a bit of what is good from their university to add in syllabus for student in UiTM.
Scope
The scope of this report is focus on subject Information System that provide by in two Universities. The scope is the subject provide in Universities, fees and administration.
Finding
Findings/results
Based on result, both University offer about same subject. For example, in term of System subject, both provide databases syst...

... subject? Maybe in diploma there already learn but only a basic. Maybe in degree ISM, the learning will be more detail. Because as we know, men student like to do something that more practical, they are bored to learn only on theory. By having a PC maintenance subject, there will more explore about hardware and component in computer. Pc maintenance subject also include in Computer Science course. So, if ISM not includes the subject, it will make computer science student more shine rather than ISM student. So it will be problem when student want to grab job opportunities.
Costs and benefits
In term of cost, actually the fees for all university are same but student UiTM lucky because UiTM have a subsidy by 50 percent because it’s under Mara. It also give benefit to student because they can save their money because the fess are cheaper than other Universities.
The college is very respective to the students interests and it cares for its reputation.
University: a place to learn, to grow, an obstacle to surpass a place to socialize, to find oneself, to experience. These are perhaps some reasons students pursue a post-secondary education. A University is in fact defined as an educational institution designed for instruction, examination, or both, of students in many branches of advanced learning, conferring degrees in various faculties. Therefore, students examine Universities on various factors such as reputation and financial cost. The University of British Columbia (UBC) is located in west coast province and is renowned for innovative programs and research. The University of Victoria (UVIC) not only draws the attention of students looking for community and island based environmental research, but international students interested in enrolling in recognized undergraduate and graduate programs. Throughout society there is a growing importance and social expectation of high school students to pursue a post-secondary education. In result, students now examine universities such as UBC and UVIC in search of the best academic institution and experience possible.
“Constant efforts, dedication, devotion and determination are the key to success” This principle I have followed in my career. Setting goals and striving hard to accomplish them has always been my strength in professional as well as personal life. I have always been amazed by computers, code –programs and was keen to understand the underlying meaning, gimmick, structure and pattern of how programs actually work. Learning about simple Foxpro programs, excel sheet formulae, C programs at an early age heightened my interest in computer programs. This childhood interest urged me to do a diploma in information technology and later bachelor’s degree in the same area. Having completed six years course in Information Technology, and two years of experience in IT. I stand by the principal “Stay Hungry” and this has helped me in achieving my goals. Standing by this I would like to explore ahead and pursue MS in MIS. I would like emerge to put to use this knowledge to pursue MS program in MIS.
To achieve a master degree is a goal in my life plan, when I decided to study bachelor's degree in the U.K. During two years of academic study of computer science in Birmingham City University, I enjoyed the British approach to education. It offers an opportunity for students to implement their plan, develop their interest and discover their strengths and weaknesses. In Birmingham City University, I have learnt what I am required to do and I am interested in the field of Information System Development.
I am currently employed as a Software Engineering Senior Analyst at Accenture. The Information system advances so rapidly that at times it is too difficult to keep up with it without proper knowledge and experience. While most of the people do get a relatively easy entry in the field after under graduation, it is very difficult to aim for a constant growth only on that basis. The field demands upgraded knowledge and experience for career growth and (achieve goals). And that is why I aspire, to pursue Masters in Management Information Systems at your esteemed University.
...th as it will significantly influence the whole school’s academic performance. On the other hand, when students graduating from this universities enter the level playing field of professional world, their performance and ability is a gauge used by their employers to judge whether the university is good or not. It is very clear that such practice, with a short-term economic return though, because great damages both to the universities themselves and to the international and local students in the long term.
The structure and workings of the university are ever changing. The university of the past is not like the university of the present and the university of the present will not be like the university of the future. This “adaptation” to the times is what can make some universities great or make some universities among the worst in the nation.
I am aware of the hard work involved in acquiring the degree from an institution of international reputation and I am confident of succeeding in the course offered to me at the university.
The databases of the university is maintained and updated regularly to provide the updated subject information to the registered students and faculty.
Asemi observe that Management Information System (MIS) is one of the information systems that is computer based. Besides, Asemi defines MIS as “an organizational method of providing past, present and project information related to internal operations and external intelligences. It supports the planning, control and operation functions of an organization by furnishing uniform information in the proper time frame to assist the decision makers,” (2011). The aim of MIS is to satisfy the general information need of the entire manager in an organization. Before the advent of computers, the process of decision-making was one that was full of built-in advantages and ad hoc methods. Computers technologies have changed the landscape of the decision-making process completely by making the process less demanding and easy to undertake. The reason for this situation is that information technology has made access to information more automated, efficient, effective, timely, and less ambiguous. Consequently, the ordinary t...

Lohmar, that in higher education, it is possible to see three degrees which are Bachelor’s Degree, Master’s and Doctoral Studies.The first university degree, Bachelor's, can generally be attained in three years of full-time study. The higher education system comprises universities and polytechnics, in which the admission requirement is a secondary general or vocational diploma. The ground rule is that the universities, their faculties or departments select their own students based on matriculation examination grades, the school-leaving certificate and/or entrance examinations (Ministry of Education, 2005) All studying is free of charge.
In the present modern day, and seemingly for an extensive period of time, society has tended and still does, hold a predisposed idea that a university is associated with a building and the location that it is in. What society does not realise however the fact that it is a place to study where the location does not matter because towards the end you still achieve the same degree as anyone else.

The positive spirit of the university, the positive feedback from students and the level of expertise of the faculty in the computer science department are amongst the most compelling factors which have led me to choose@@@@.
My University is an educational institution which is widely recognized all over the world. It originated from Philippines and collaborates with PSBA (Philippine School of Business Administration). It has 2 branches in Jakarta which is located in Hayam Wuruk and the other one in Kelapa Gading.
