About
Faculty of Information Science takes pride in being the pioneer in providing professional education to fulfil the manpower need of the country in three very important fields, namely: Information Management, Library Management, and Records Management. Our academic programmes, supplemented by industry attachments, equip graduates with knowledge and skills to take on the challenging demands of managing information in various forms and in various types of organisations. Our graduates become the main driving force for the development of a knowledge-based society, transforming Malaysia into a developed nation, ensuring that the country's rich reservoirs of knowledge are systematically organised, maintained and enhanced for optimum value. To achieve this aim, the programmes consist of the blended components from four main areas: Information Technologies, Professional and Technical Aspects of Information and Records Management, Public Relations, and Users' Needs and Services.
UiTM is currently ranked 116th in the QS Asia University Rankings: 2026 and 542nd in the QS World University Rankings 2026. The rankings affirm the university's continuous effort to enhance academic quality and graduate employability. In line with its establishment philosophy, UiTM continues to offer tertiary education opportunities in various academic programmes to economically disadvantaged students from rural areas, with the hope of improving their families' socioeconomic background. Marking 69 years of existence, UiTM has played a continuous role in driving development and offering contributions, particularly in meeting the country’s demands to improve the socio-economic imbalance in the community, with a focus on the Malays and Bumiputera. It is envisaged that all efforts and achievements obtained through the aspirations of making UiTM a Globally Renowned University over the past five years will continue to serve their purpose for the next ten years. May UiTM remain relevant, projecting a more precise and effective global image and branding.
