Ekuiti Nasional Berhad.[9]

History

Asia Pacific Institute of Information Technology (APIIT) was founded in 1993 as part of an initiative by the Malaysian Government to address the shortage of

Perth
, Australia (2004).

In 2003, the Malaysian campus moved to the new premises at Technology Park Malaysia, which was known as APIIT TPM. In March 2017, the Malaysian campus was moved from within the vicinity of the old premises to the new premises location at Jalan Teknologi 5, Technology Park Malaysia. The old premises now houses "APIIT Sdn Bhd" which cater for IT Professional Development Courses. Semester exams are held regularly at the exam hall located on the ground floor since 2017.

The curriculum had since developed, with the institution being recognize as

SAP University Alliance Partner. In 2001, the institution became a Microsoft Certified Technical Education Center. APIIT attained university college status in 2004, and was renamed to Asia Pacific University College of Technology & Innovation (UCTI) and further renamed to Asia Pacific University of Technology & Innovation (APU) after attaining university
status.

Student life

The Asia Pacific University Student Activities and Representative Council (also known as the SARC), is the official students' union which handles five major events of the year and represent the students, clubs, and societies in any inter-varsity events or collaborations. The SARC is elected annually in January by the university students for a term of 1 year. Unlike most student council from other universities, the SARC does not represent the students in matters pertaining to the university's decision-making process. The SARC student body is governed by the department of student affairs which acts as an advisory board.[10]
