Institut Sinaran

About Institut Sinaran

Institut Sinaran was established in 1987 as Sabah Tshung Tsin Pre-University Centre to provide affordable, internationally recognized Pre-U qualifications locally. It was upgraded to an institute on 14 July 2002. We are presently the biggest Cambridge GCE A-Level Centre in East Malaysia.

In 2006, we started our own Diploma in Commerce which has been fully accredited by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA), with credit transfer to many universities locally and abroad for direct entry into 2nd year of business related degree programme.

2008 was another milestone forward as we were approved to be the first South Australian Matriculation (SAM) centre in East Malaysia. The combination of school based assessments for assignments and the external exams, provide a more holistic approach to assess students' abilities and to prepare them well for rigorous studies in university.

Our good image and reputation as a provider of quality and holistic education is further enhanced by our commitment towards the growth and development of our students through the course programme and institute's activities. We nurture our students to be future leaders.

Institut Sinaran was formerly situated along Jalan Damai, but has moved into our beautiful new campus at KM 10 between Tuaran Bypass and Jalan Sulaman since 4 January 2010. It is now strategically situated near University Malaysia Sabah (UMS) and 1Borneo Hypermall in Kota Kinabalu.

The pleasant, peaceful and well laid out campus ground provides a conducive learning environment. The well-equipped science and computer laboratories, well-stocked library, comfortable and air-conditioned lecture rooms and lecture halls, complemented by the experienced, qualified, dedicated, caring and approachable teaching staff, all contribute towards making learning in the Institute a pleasant and rewarding experience.
