First City University College

First City University College was formerly known as KBU International College. Since its inception in 1990, KBU International College has an excellent track record in producing employable graduates and entrepreneurs. In recognition of our excellence in providing tertiary education, the Ministry of Higher Education elevated KBU to FIRST CITY UNIVERSITY COLLEGE. First City UC will continue KBU’s proud tradition of providing the best learning experience for its students. The courses offered will continue to be industry relevant. These will be the springboard for our graduates to be successful in their chosen careers.

Quality education at First City UC is further enhanced by its compliance with the requirements of the Agensi Kelayakan Malaysia or Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA). Constant monitoring is also carried out by First City UC’s very own Quality Assurance Department and its international university partners.
