History

UNISEL was established on 23 August 1999 as the first state funded semi- government university in Malaysia with the aim of providing tertiary education and opportunities for research and development within the broad sphere of industrial technology, management as well as information and communications technology. It began operations from a temporary campus in Shah Alam until its main campus in the township of Bestari Jaya, approximately 50 km away from the federal capital of Kuala Lumpur, was completed in 2005. UNISEL now operates from both the Shah Alam and Bestari Jaya campuses.

Organisation and administration

UNISEL is owned and managed by the State Government of Selangor through Pendidikan Industri YS Sdn. Bhd., a subsidiary of the state-owned investment arm, Kumpulan Darul Ehsan Berhad and established under the provisions of the Private Higher Education Institutions Act 1996. It is one of the two institutions of higher education owned by the state government via PIYS, the other being INPENS International College.
