History
In 2006, Taylor’s was granted ‘University College’ status, which resulted in two distinct identities under the tertiary arm of the brand – Taylor’s College and Taylor’s University College.

Work commenced to build the RM450 million Taylor's University Lakeside Campus, in Subang Jaya, in early 2007 and was completed in January 2010.

Officially awarded as a full-fledged university status in September 2010 by the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia, Taylor’s is now one of the nation’s leading private higher education institutions.
