00:00The demand for skilled healthcare professionals is on the rise.
00:04However, students today require hands-on experience and real-world exposure to succeed.
00:10The core philosophy that drives IJN University College.
00:15Located directly behind the National Heart Institute in Kuala Lumpur,
00:19IJNUC is more than just a campus.
00:22According to Dr. Noreen Ang Azlan,
00:25IJNUC is an integrated educational environment where theory and practice are one.
00:32We emphasize in IJNUC,
00:35we emphasize on, of course, interactive teaching,
00:39teaching and learning, and student-based learning.
00:43And we interact much with our students.
00:48We do have, we actually have both practicals and theory for our teaching and learning.
00:56This hands-on approach is the cornerstone of the curriculum,
01:00with practical training starting as early as the first semester for some courses,
01:05in a deliberate effort to produce clinic-ready graduates.
01:08According to IJNUC Vice Chancellor and Chief Executive, Prof. Emerita Dr. Durisha Idrus,
01:15graduates are closely tied to leading medical institutions.
01:19In this way, students learn, experience, and improve their skills through practical placement.
01:25Recently upgraded to a university college,
01:28IJNUC has established close connections beyond IJN,
01:32with other institutions, hospitals, and healthcare industries,
01:36both public and private, to support students' growth through practical training.
01:41That's why we expose our students with, I would say,
01:44the best that we can with other hospitals,
01:48whether they're government hospitals or private hospitals,
01:51they go for internships in view of placements and also healthcare industries.
01:56The campus has also established its facilities to support interactive learning.
02:01These include dedicated spaces like mock-up wards for nursing and medical sciences,
02:07a mock-up pharmaceutical dispensary, and a fully equipped physiotherapy lab,
02:12all designed to cater to the specific needs of each course.
02:16As IJNUC expands its offerings from diplomas to bachelor's degrees and soon postgraduate programs,
02:23it continues to set a new standard for healthcare education,
02:27hoping to produce more graduates, both local and international.
02:31You can be a part of this journey with IJNUC,
02:34with applications for the first intake from September 17th to 30th.
