The Corporate Ranking Centre (CRC), under the Associate Vice-Chancellor (Corporate Strategy) at Universiti Malaya (UM), conducts an annual Tracking and Monitoring Exercise that analyses application, admission, and graduation rates for women, students from low-income backgrounds, and students with disabilities, with a particular focus on the 2023/2024 academic year. This exercise supports data-driven decision-making at the university’s top management level, reinforcing UM’s commitment to diversity and inclusion and offering insights into UM's evolving student demographics. Drawing from UM’s records spanning several academic sessions up to 2023/2024, this analysis provides a robust foundation for quantitative and qualitative insights.
By regularly monitoring these metrics, UM can effectively track its progress toward Sustainable Development Goals, particularly those related to quality education (SDG 4) and reduced inequalities (SDG 10). This approach allows the university to identify areas for improvement, optimise resource allocation, and foster a more inclusive and sustainable learning environment.
