Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Johor Branch Segamat Campus

Institut Teknologi MARA Johor Branch started its operation on 15 December 1983 in a temporary building in Taman Indah, Bukit Siput, Segamat. This temporary campus in Bukit Siput is located at KM 5, Jalan Genuang, Segamat and was inaugurated by the then YAB. Menteri Besar of Johor, Dato 'Abd. Ajib bin Ahmad on 1 January 1984.

This temporary campus can only accommodate a total of 440 students at a time. Due to the increasing student intake according to the Fifth Malaysia Plan (RMK - 5), ITM has borrowed Temenggong Abdul Rahman National Primary School to be used as a residential college and is known as Temenggong Abdul Rahman College.

Beginning in August 1986, the ITM Johor Branch Campus gradually moved to a temporary campus in Segamat Baru opposite Taman Indah, Bukit Siput. Due to the rapid development of students, the State Government of Johor has contributed a permanent campus for ITM Segamat at Batu 8, Jalan Muar-Segamat on 200 hectares of land. The campus, which was completed in January 1990, can accommodate a capacity of up to 2,500 students.

ITM Johor Branch also opened its second campus in Johor Bahru in 1990 at Menara Landmark until it moved to Larkin on 2 July 2007 and is known as UiTM Johor Johor Bahru City Campus. On 17 July 2010, a groundbreaking ceremony was held by the then Minister of Higher Education, YB Dato 'Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin on 200 acres of land in Pasir Gudang, Johor which was fully completed on 1 May 2014. Johor Bahru City Campus once again moved to Bandar Seri Alam Masai, Pasir Gudang under the planning of PFI Campus (Private Funding Initiative) and is known as UiTM Johor Branch Pasir Gudang Campus.
