Headquartered in Batu Kawan, Penang, Peninsula College’s educational infrastructure is designed with the campus-in-industry model, whereby having a physical presence in an industrial park puts us in a unique position to bridge the gap between graduate skills and industry needs via academia-industry collaboration.
