Living in Sunway City

Monash University Malaysia is located in Sunway City, a bustling township, higher-education hub, and popular meeting place, just 18 kilometres from Kuala Lumpur. It’s easy to get around and offers tantalising food and entertainment options, and convenient access to health, banking and religious services.

Campus life is an opportunity to discover your potential, pursue your interests and make lifelong friends, which you’re sure to do if you choose a Monash student community for your accommodation.

You can explore your interests beyond the classroom through a wide range of sports and recreation activities.

To help you get the most out of your time before and after class, the Monash University Student Association (MUSA) runs over 40 clubs and societies -- from the sporting to the social, environmental, and cultural -- and organises events and workshops to enrich your university experience.
