University of Cambodia

Since its founding in June 2003, The University of Cambodia (UC) has become one of the leading and most reputable higher education institutions in Cambodia. It is an intellectual community where students learn how to explore their curiosities, create and share knowledge, refine and challenge ideas, promote greater understanding, and serve their families and communities. The rigorous and supportive learning environment at UC fosters open and constructive dialogue and promotes strong critical, analytical, and creative thinking skills among students, while preparing them to address the increasingly complex issues in society and discover meaning in their own lives through offering innovative undergraduate, graduate and professional courses. The University recognizes the need to train and nurture a new generation of highly capable young thinkers who contribute to the intellectual, economic and social development of Cambodia, and who lead with values, integrity and compassion. The aforementioned values of the University are reflected in its pair of mottoes, “In Pursuit of Knowledge, Wisdom” and “Building Tomorrow’s Leaders.”

The University of Cambodia is a private university that offers a range of degrees including Associate’s, Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral programs. All Colleges and Schools are officially recognized by the Royal Government of Cambodia (RGC), the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport (MoEYS), and the Accreditation Committee of Cambodia (ACC). In addition, UC is also a member of the Cambodian Higher Education Association (CHEA). Currently, the University operates six colleges and four schools: the College of Arts and Humanities, College of Education, College of Law, College of Media and Communications, College of Social Sciences, College of Science and Technology, School of Creative Arts, School of Foreign Languages, Techo Sen School of Government and International Relations (TSS), and The Tony Fernandes School of Business. In 2013, UC opened the Khmer-based program called the Khmer Track with the understanding that not all students may be confident in learning another language. The content and the quality of the programs remain the same; the only difference is that the courses are taught in the medium of Khmer, instead of English. International Track students must complete our rigorous Intensive English Program (IEP), known as the Fastrax Program, conducted through our Center for English Studies (CES), which has now changed into the School of Foreign Languages-SFL, which offers a variety of English, French, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, German, and Thai courses, before entering their degree program. The IEP program teaches students all they need to know to be proficient in English in an academic setting, including essay writing, organizational and time management skills, research and referencing, and critical thinking skills. SFL offers numerous other courses both for those who wish to continue their studies at UC and those who simply want to improve their English in a fun setting with qualified instructors. For example, SFL offers ESL courses for those who want to learn the language at a slower rate, and ESP courses for those who wish to learn terminology and vocabulary related to a specific profession or area of study. In addition, the UC Academic Foundation Department (AFD) helps new BA students transition into university learning through its Foundation Year Program which covers a variety of academic disciplines, including mathematics, science and technology, English language and writing, and social science, among others. All teaching faculty and management staff are selected among the best and brightest in their respective fields. UC attracts qualified and innovative employees locally and internationally, and is proud to host a culturally diverse faculty and staff.
