KUCHING, Jan 7: Technology College Sarawak (TCS) is one of the best business-based institutions of higher learning in Sarawak, says Premier of Sarawak Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg.

He said the college boasts a high passing rate that has exceeded expectations and this is a stellar achievement that every TCS student and staff should be proud of.

“TCS is also one of the biggest contributors to the skills in today’s job market, as the college helps to produce graduates with employability skills that are in high demand in the working industry.


“As such, it comes as no surprise that about 98 per cent of TCS graduates are employed within six months after they have completed their studies,” said Abang Johari in a speech text read by Deputy Minister for Energy and Environmental Sustainability Dr Hazland Abang Hipni during TCS’ 17th convocation ceremony held at Raia Hotel here today.

Abang Johari further stated that studying at TCS comes with a variety of advantages, as the college offers first-rate courses from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) and Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), all of which are 5-star higher learning institutions in Malaysia, as well as its very own homegrown Foundation and Diploma programmes.

He also pointed out that despite TCS being a private institution, its students have the advantage of receiving government financial aid to help pay for their tuition fees.

“With this, students and their families are not burdened with financial matters and they will be able to fully focus on their studies,” he added.

The ceremony was for TCS’ graduating classes of 2020, 2021 and 2022. — DayakDaily
