Sources

• UPM main portal https://upm.edu.my/

  The official portal identifies the institution as Universiti Putra Malaysia and gives the address as 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia.

  Model elements: this source is used for institution identity and location.

• Undergraduate programmes https://upm.edu.my/admission/programmes/undergraduate-75800

  UPM lists undergraduate provision as named bachelor and first-professional programmes across faculties, including agriculture, forestry and environment, veterinary medicine, engineering, education, science, food science and technology, human ecology, languages and communication, design and architecture, medicine and health sciences, computer science and information technology, biotechnology and biomolecular sciences, Bintulu campus programmes, and business and economics.

  The page includes predefined combined or specialised named degrees such as Bachelor of Human Development Science with Management, Bachelor of Human Development Science with Information Technology, Bachelor of Computer Science (Multimedia Computing) and Bachelor of Computer Science (Computer Network).

  Model elements: the official undergraduate catalogue supports fixed admission to named programmes. It does not document a university-wide minor, open major choice, double-major route or open programme structure; therefore this record uses programChoice 0.

• UPM Prospectus 2026-2027 https://pspk.upm.edu.my/upload/dokumen/20260227153441UPM_2026_2027_Prospectus.pdf

  The current prospectus gives UPM's study calendar, undergraduate entry rules and programme list.

  Its programme list shows 3-year BA language and literature degrees, 3.5-year programmes such as Bachelor of Communication and Bachelor of Science in Architecture, many 4-year bachelor programmes, and 5-year Doctor of Medicine and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine routes.

  Model elements: this source sets the 3 to 5 year duration range and reinforces that undergraduate provision is presented as named programmes rather than a common open curriculum.

• Outbound Program Overview https://intl.upm.edu.my/mobility/outbound/program_overview-4092

  UPM's Putra International Centre states that the outbound mobility programme enables UPM students to spend time abroad during their study year.

  The programme covers short-term academic visits and long-term semester exchanges at partner and non-partner universities worldwide, with eligibility requirements set by both UPM and the host university.

  Model elements: this establishes regular external study during an undergraduate degree, but the credit-transfer conclusion relies on the study-abroad application form.

• Outbound application procedure https://intl.upm.edu.my/mobility/outbound/application_procedure-59096

  The procedure requires students going for outbound mobility to get approval to study abroad from Putra International Centre before departure.

  Applications are reviewed by a Mobility Committee chaired by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor for Academic and International affairs, and eligibility criteria include semester exchange, industrial training and research attachment at a foreign university or institute.

  Model elements: outbound mobility is formally governed by UPM academic administration rather than treated as informal travel.

• Application for study abroad outbound https://intl.upm.edu.my/upload/dokumen/20220918231953BR02_-_Application_Form_for_study_abroad_(FINAL).pdf

  The official study-abroad application form includes Exchange Programme as 1 or 2 semesters with credit transfer.

  The same form asks students to indicate credit transfer availability as Offered or Not Offered, name the host university or institution, and identify the programme type.

  Strict cross-registration review: this source does not prove ordinary selection of individual external courses that can be credited into the degree record. It remains mobility or transfer context, while courseChoice is lowered to 0 because the current sources do not verify a separate internal course-choice mechanism.

• Outbound mobility application checklist https://intl.upm.edu.my/upload/dokumen/20220920112110Outbound_Checklist.pdf

  The official checklist requires a faculty, institute or college supporting letter, the study-abroad outbound application form fully endorsed by the faculty, college or institute, the latest academic transcript, and a host-university approval letter.

  Model elements: this supports the interpretation that outbound exchange is embedded in the student's academic record and faculty approval process.

• UPM Facts & Figures 2026 https://pspk.upm.edu.my/upload/dokumen/20260618115709FACT_AND_FIGURES_2026_web_june.pdf
