  2. Student Exchange Programme (SEP) in cooperation with the GE-13 universities is an accredited programme to study abroad in a chosen host university for one semester with the same amount of tuition fees paid to UTP.
  3. Research Attachment (RA) is a programme where UTP students can complete the research component of their home university degree in other institutions.
  4. Summer Programme (SP) offers students an opportunity to undergo experiential learning programme for the duration of 10 to 14 days. Students will be exposed to what host university has to offer and the cultural heritage of the country.

Under the QS Asian Ranking, SETARA and D'SETARA evaluation, UTP is assessed based on minimum 2.5% of its current student population for inbound and outbound exchange in overseas at Institution of Higher Learning (IHL) are some of the initiatives to achieve the target.

YUTP contributed a total financial support of RM1,494,482.50 to send 369 students for mobility programmes.

Research

​In enhancing the learning experience of its students, UTP provides an opportunity for the industry to establish and sponsor research projects in UTP as part of a long-term programme that involves collaborations between UTP and major oil and gas industry players, among others, to pave the way for enhanced relationships between the industry players and academia.

The main fund for approved research & development projects undertaken by UTP comes from the PETRONAS Petroleum Research Fund (PRF). These research projects encompass areas such as hydrocarbon, sustainability, health and transport infrastructure that are impactful to the communities. PRF through YUTP had awarded RM15,000,000 worth of research grants to UTP researchers in 2019.

YUTP also works hand-in-hand with the industries to further encourage UTP researchers in enhancing research and innovation. For 2019, 3 corporations collaborated with YUTP to support the following research projects:
