Open University Malaysia will be having its next Postgraduate students registration soon. The September 2008 intake is currently in progress. Application to the various masters and doctoral degree requires a minimum of a bachelor and master degree respectively. However, those who are above 35 and have a minimum STPM (A Level) or Diploma can apply for masters degree programmes via Open Entry where the applicant must prepare a portfolio and submit for approval.

The postgraduate programmes are now available at OUM Main Campus in KL as well as other locations throughout the country. The Perak Regional Learning Centre in Ipoh currently offers the Master in Education and MBA programme, which is fully accredited by MQA and JPA. It also offers the PhD (Ed) and PhD (BA). Students will be provided with weekend tutorials and are also supported by Video Conference lecture and Online Learning.

During the registration day, successful applicants are invited to attend a programme briefing and meet up with their respective programme coordinators. The applicants will then pay up their fees and collect their learning materials. The applicants will then allow access to their Learning Management System portal so that they start to download their materials and also to access the over 50,000 collections of e-books and e-journals from OUM's digital library.
