Final Outcome

Rich Picture2

Rich pictureAEI has been admitting students from 2003 onwards. Over 149 students have graduated from AEI so far. These Alumni are working in different parts of the world and some have started their own companies. AEI runs 4 courses in the areas of Information management, SME, ASEAN studies and Regional Integration. Only from 2007-08 session all the four courses have been running together. Dr. Roziah Omar and Dr. Jariah ( AEI Directors) are carrying out AEIs mission to be a premier Institution in Asia and Europe relations. Presently AEI doesn't have an Alumni Association. Alumni do not contribute on AEI projects All information to Alumni is conveyed through emails. Only few alumni are in touch with AEI on regular basis.

The prospective students get official information about the courses. There is no mechanism available for the prospective students to know the quality of education being provided and the career opportunities available after the completion of course. The existing students interact with one another through general social networking sites like Facebook and Yahoogroups.

Lecturers interact with students mostly through direct contact or emails.

AEI is looking to improve its student strength and also further improve its quality of education.

Houz the course quality?

Need to have my students in touch once I finish the course here, yeh?
