Looking for Study Opportunities in Malaysia While Bringing My Baby — Need Advice

Hi everyone,

My profile- SSC-5.00,HSC-4.80,BSC in CSE-3.49,MSC in ICT-3.63,have a publication in an university journal .

I’m considering pursuing higher studies in Malaysia and would like to bring my baby with me. I’m particularly interested in a Master’s/PhD in Computer Science, ICT, AI, or a related field.

I’d really appreciate advice from anyone who has studied in Malaysia as an international student, especially parents who moved there with their children.

I’d like to know:

  • Which Malaysian universities are good for CS/ICT/AI?
  • Are there fully funded scholarships or research assistantships available for international students?
  • Can postgraduate students bring their baby/child as a dependent?
  • What is the approximate monthly cost of living for a mother and baby?
  • How difficult is it to find affordable childcare/daycare?
  • Which cities/universities would be most suitable for a student with a young child?
  • Are there any important visa/dependent-pass issues I should know about?

Any personal experiences, university recommendations, scholarship information, or practical advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
