Cadetship Programme

Multimedia University is committed to producing future-ready graduates equipped with the knowledge, skills, and experiences necessary to excel in a competitive and rapidly evolving professional landscape.

In line with this objective, the University has established two distinctive cadetship programmes—Industry Cadetship (iCadet) and Entrepreneur Cadetship (eCadet)—to provide structured, experiential learning pathways that complement academic development.

  • The iCadet programme is designed to cultivate industry-ready graduates by providing early exposure to real-world working environments
  • The eCadet programme seeks to develop the entrepreneurial capabilities of students who aspire to become innovators and business leaders
