Quest International University (QIU) celebrated a momentous occasion at its 8th Convocation Ceremony, honouring the academic achievements of over 600 graduates. This milestone reinforces QIU’s reputation as a leading institution dedicated to excellence, innovation, and inclusivity in education.

Celebrating Young Pioneers in Medicine
Among the event’s highlights were siblings Dr. Tan Qi Ning (20) and Dr. Tan Qi Yu (18) from Kuala Lumpur, who made history as two of Malaysia’s youngest MBBS graduates.

Their inspiring journey began with homeschooling, transitioning into QIU’s foundation program at ages 14 and 12, respectively. Reflecting on her time at QIU, Dr. Qi Ning expressed gratitude for the university’s nurturing environment: “The faculty’s dedication and the mentor-mentee sessions were instrumental in guiding me through both academic and personal challenges.”

Dr. Qi Yu, recipient of the prestigious Vice-Chancellor’s Award, praised QIU’s impactful curriculum: “The hands-on clinical experiences across multiple hospitals ignited my passion for medicine. QIU’s motto of ‘leaving no one behind’ deeply resonates with my aspirations.”

A Testament to Lifelong Learning
The convocation also celebrated Capt. (Rtd) Dr. Chan Weng Kwai (72), who earned his Doctor of Business Administration degree. A retired army captain and former school principal, Capt. Dr. Chan embodies the spirit of lifelong learning. With two Master’s degrees and fellowship distinctions in esteemed chemistry institutions, his achievement underscores QIU’s commitment to empowering learners at every stage of life.

Embracing the Future of Education
The degrees were conferred by QI Group Founder Dato’ Sri Dr. Vijay Eswaran who also serves as Chairman of the University Council and Pro-Chancellor, alongside Chancellor Tun Arifin Zakaria, and Vice-Chancellor Professor Zita Mohd Fahmi.

Graduates spanned six faculties: Medicine, Pharmacy, Business and Management, Social Sciences, Computing and Engineering, and Integrated Life Sciences.

Looking ahead, QIU is poised to expand its horizons with the construction of a new state-of-the-art campus in Perak, Malaysia. This development reflects QIU’s strategic vision to meet growing demand, foster innovation, and enhance its global competitiveness.
