This development is in keeping with the natural progression from KBU International College to First City University College, a recognition awarded by the Ministry of Higher Education to University College status. With the elevated status, First City UC is further determined to strive and thrive in its mission to offer the best teaching and learning experience as was outlined by its visionary founder, the late Tan Sri Teo Soo Cheng.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>He was a philanthropist and a farsighted developer of the award-winning urban township Bandar Utama. Although he was not an educationist by profession, he strongly believed that education is the key to social mobility, human resource development and social construction of the community and the country. It was his foresight and vision to provide opportunities for affordable quality education to local and international students that led to the establishment of the KBU International College in 1990.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, the college has been forging ahead in offering relevant programmes in the field of business, engineering, computing, design, hospitality and foundation studies to produce employable graduates and entrepreneurs. Indeed, success stories of its alumni and the milestones which have been planted throughout its 26 years\u2019 journey have paved the way for further development and growth.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/firstcity.edu.my\/static\/media\/media\/foodcourt_entrance_view.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"240\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 360px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 360\/240;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/firstcity.edu.my\/static\/media\/media\/foodcourt_entrance_view.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"240\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>The new 350,000 square feet campus block \u2013 almost twice the size of its current premise \u2013 houses lecture rooms, studios, seminar rooms, workshops, state-of-the-art laboratories, IT Centre, library and MBA Centre.
