Malaysia Education Blueprint 2015-2025 (Higher Education)

u The 10 Shifts This Shift aims to develop holistic, entrepreneurial, and balanced graduates in line with the National Education Philosophy. Such graduates would have relevant disciplinary knowledge and skills (ilmu), ethics and morality (akhlak), along with the appropriate mindsets, behaviors, cultural and civilisational literacy (adab) to advance them to a high level of personal well-being, and enable them to contribute to the harmony and betterment of the family, society, nation, and global community.

These qualities are reflected by six primary attributes: ethics and spirituality, leadership skills, national identity, language proficiency, thinking skills, and knowledge. The development of students’ and graduates’ attributes within the six domains is a continuum of their educational process starting from their basic education.

E-11

The 10 Shifts

To achieve these system and student aspirations, the MEB (HE) outlines 10 Shifts that will spur continued excellence in the higher education system. All 10 Shifts address key performance issues in the system, particularly with regard to quality and efficiency, as well as global trends that are disrupting the higher education landscape.

The first four Shifts focus on outcomes for key stakeholders in the higher education system, including students in academic and TVET pathways, the academic community, as well as all Malaysians participating in lifelong learning. The other six Shifts focus on enablers for the higher education ecosystem, covering critical components such as funding, governance, innovation, internationalisation, online learning, and delivery.
