This program has been well received by more than 75 universities in the United States and New Zealand as a 2+2 transfer degree program.

This extraordinary achievement later led to the establishment of KPTM Kuala Lumpur (1987), KPTM Bangi (1988) and KPTM Kota Bharu (1994). Several international strategic alliances were formed with the United Kingdom's Northern Consortium (1988), the Australian Higher Education Consortium in Malaysia (1994) and the British Higher Education Consortium in Malaysia (1994) which enabled students to continue their studies at several renowned UK and Australian universities.
