The Open University has been committed to international development for over 20 years. We are globally recognised for our teaching and pioneering research within the sector, and for driving innovation.

The Open University is accredited by the Middles States Commission on Higher Education, Education (https://www.msche.org/) based in Philadelphia, USA, which is an institutional accrediting agency recognised by the US Secretary of Education and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation.

Our programmes cover a wide range of disciplines accredited by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA). With the MQA accreditation our graduates can rest assured that the qualifications they obtained are recognised throughout the world .

More specifically, the OU is fully accredited both in the UK and US . It’s a recognized body in the UK, which is british legalese for fully accredited. And it’s one of the few UK universities to also be regionally accredited in the US.

The International Open University (IOU) was launched by Dr. Bilal Philips in 2007 as a higher education institution that offers intensive online undergraduate and graduate programs completely tuition-free .

We cannot claim that ALL universities will accept IOU’s degrees , as it each country has its own practices and standards for recognition of university credits and studies, accreditation and/or recognition of prior learning (RPL).
