Universiti Teknologi Brunei
Universiti Teknologi Brunei (Brunei University of Technology) was founded in 1982 and is a non-profit public higher-education university located in the rural environment of Gadong, Brunei-Muara (population range of 50,000-249,999). This is one of the best universities in Brunei. Universiti Teknologi Brunei (UTB) is a very small (enrollment range: 1,000-1,999 students) coeducational Bruneian higher education institution that is officially recognized by the Kementerian Pendidikan, Negara Brunei Darussalam (Ministry of Education of Brunei Darussalam).
In November 1980, the Director of Education presented the government with a proposal to establish Institut Teknologi Brunei. He proposed that such an institution be established to expand Brunei Darussalam's technical education offerings. The plan was accepted by the government a little less than two years later, in February 1982. Pusat Latihan Teknikal Brunei was designed and expanded as an embryo for the institute because the actual establishment of the institute was expected to take some time. Leeds Polytechnic aided the institute in the creation of its curriculum, secondment of employees, procurement of books and equipment, and employment of contract staff in the United Kingdom toward the end of its inception in October 1985. The institute received its first pupils less than five months later.
There are approximately 2,303 students and 140 academic members at UTB. It has graduated 4,483 HND students and 128 bachelor's degree students. The Faculty of Engineering, the School of Computing and Informatics, and the School of Business all offer academic programs. In a variety of fields of study, Universiti Teknologi Brunei (UTB) offers courses and programs leading to officially recognized higher education degrees such as pre-bachelor degrees (i.e. certificates, diplomas, associate or foundation degrees), bachelor degrees, and master degrees. Students at UTB have access to a variety of academic and non-academic facilities and services, including a library and administrative services.
