HELP: THE ANALYTICS-DRIVEN ENTREPRENEURIAL UNIVERSITY

Creating the A*Gen *The Analytics Generation

To prepare for the future we are transforming to become the Analytics-Driven Entrepreneurial University. Our effort is recognised by MDEC which conferred us the Premier Digital Tech University Award. We also received the MDEC Recognition for Certificate Training in data science for students.

To support this transformation HELP invested RM25 million in the Business Analytics and Technology Innovation Centre (BATIC), which will be used to innovate and incubate techno-entrepreneurship. Additionally, in planning is Phase Three expansion of Subang 2 which will add the signature Green-Digital Technology Campus. We are getting bigger, better, bolder in our innovative education investment.

Besides using analytics to drive our management and teaching, we are also building our research capability in analytics application. Part of the research grant from the Ministryof Education and internal funding is allocated for analytics research.

To complement the above development we have signed up with Bloomberg to set up the largest Bloomberg Finance Lab in Malaysia. This resource facility boosts the economics, business, financial and analytics training in our Faculty of Business, Economics and Accounting, the ELM

Graduate School, and the Faculty of Computing and Digital Technology. In addition, we have internship collaboration with AI companies and techno-entrepreneurs.

During the last 33 years HELP has been exploring and experimenting with innovative ways to evolve our education philosophy, principles and practices. To achieve the 3 Cs,

we have designed the TEA culture to nurture the right skills and predisposition in our students.

TEA is the acronym for Thinking mind, Entrepreneurial attitude, Analytics skills: T is about robust thinking skills; E is about having a problem-solving mindset; A is about the

skills in applying evidence-based management using data analytics. Each of these is supported by a programme of skills training and attitude development: viz, the Critical Thinking Skills Programme, the Entrepreneurship-Leadership-Management Programme (ELM), and the Analytics Certificate Programme. This is the core education culture of HELP University as we prepare our students to be IR 4.0 future ready.

All HELP students are eligible for the free Certificate in Big Data and Business Analytics course

HELP’s distinguished partnership with Trine University offers the full benefits of an American education.

With a long and rich history of 130 years, Trine University fulfills our expectations of a quintessential American liberal arts program that will provide students with a strong foundation in general education as a prelude to further study at graduate level, or as a versatile basis for work and advancement in their chosen career.

Embedded in the three majors of International Business, Finance and Marketing is a wide selection of subjects such as English, Psychology, Spanish, Philosophy, Creative Writing, Intercultural Communication, Leadership and General Biology.

These are subjects that make an American education so special. They broaden the minds of the students and open them to the rich knowledge available to all those who seek it.

Students who register for the Trine University 4+0 program at HELP will benefit from a quintessential American education system that has made America such an advanced nation with world-class companies and CEOs, great scholars and academics, and achievements in science and technology with the largest number of Nobel Prize winners in the world.

Students also have the option of spending one semester at Trine University in Indiana for the real experience of studying on an America campus, where they will have the opportunity to enlarge their social and academic network for future benefit. They will also visit and observe at first hand the business practices and management styles that make US companies and multinationals efficient, productive and globally successful.

The HELP-Trine 4+0 program is not just any education program. It is a program that has been designed to equip you with skills and competencies for effective job performance, but also with an open and broad outlook on life and the realities of the real world.

It is an education for life.

Professor Dato' Dr Zakaria AhmadBSocSc (Pol Sc) (Singapore), MA (McMaster), PhD (MIT)CEO, HELP Academy

Trine University is a growing school with a rich heritage of academic excellence and tradition. With enrollment that has more than tripled since 2000, Trine University remains a remarkably creative, innovative campus where expert, caring faculty prepare students to lead, succeed and serve.

More than 99 percent of graduates over the past several years have found employment or started graduate school within six months of graduation. Many of our students collaborate with companies, organizations and schools around the globe to solve complex problems and real-world issues, and many graduates start flourishing companies or rise to the highest level of major corporations.

For decades, Trine University has served students from around the world, including countries such as Malaysia, China and Japan, with countless numbers traveling to our main campus in Indiana to experience the environment of an American college campus. Some, such as Rupa Shanmugam, COO of SoPark Corporation in New York, have remained in the United States and established successful lives here. Others, like Shaziman bin Abu Mansor, former Minister of Works for Malaysia, returned and prospered in their home country.

More recently, we have established partnerships with institutions such as the HELP Academy to provide a quality Trine education in other nations, while still allowing students who wish to experience the United States the opportunity to take some classes here. As the 21st century progresses, Trine will continue to strategically develop its people, programs and facilities to make a positive impact on students, the community and beyond.

If you are looking to become a student at Trine, I encourage you to schedule a time to visit the HELP Academy (4+0 academic partner) campus in Damansara Heights, Kuala Lumpur. Be sure to meet with education counselors and faculty members and inquire about the business programs conducted at HELP Academy.
