Why University of Malta
Why Indian students choose University of Malta
Malta's Only Public University
The University of Malta is the country's oldest and largest higher-education institution, ranked #696 in the QS World Rankings 2027.
Every Program Is Taught in English
English is an official language of Malta — every course is taught in English, with zero language barrier for Indian students.
Indian Enrolment More Than Doubled in a Year
Indian student numbers reportedly grew from roughly 600 in 2024 to over 1,200 in 2025 — one of the fastest-growing Indian cohorts in the EU.
EU Membership, Compact Island Life
Malta is a full EU member with Schengen access, and its small size makes settling in genuinely straightforward.
Strong IT, iGaming & Finance Sectors
Malta's economy leans heavily on IT, online gaming, and financial services — sectors with real local graduate demand.
A Job-Search Permit After Graduation
Graduates can apply for a temporary residence permit — commonly cited at up to 12 months — to search for work, applied for within 6 months of graduating.
