MCKL and MTU, Ireland first entered a partnership with the ambition of enabling MCKL students to directly enter the final year of MTU\u2019s bachelor\u2019s in early childhood education programme. MCKL\u2019s students are eligible for this express pathway due to the comprehensive selection of subjects and robust practical exposure.

Now boasting over 120 alumni, the partnership has grown from humble beginnings, with just six students in the first years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Denise Thean Pui Yan is one of the alumni that has continued their studies at MTU after graduating with a Diploma in Early Childhood Education. She was the recipient of the Government of Ireland International Education Scholarship and MCKL\u2019s 100% Merit Scholarship. \u201cThis scholarship and pathway eased up my parents\u2019 financial burden and it made my dream to pursue higher education at a world-renowned university come true,\u201d stated Denise.

It helped me to alleviate many uncertainties that I had with the assessment methods adopted in Ireland. I thank God for all the positive and negative experiences that He allowed me to go through throughout my journey of study in MCKL as well as in MTU.
