Sultan Idris Education University

Sultan Idris Education University (GPS: 3.68597, 101.52276), (Malay: Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, Malay Jawi: اونيۏرسيتي ڤنديديقن سلطان إدريس‎) is a pedagogical university in Tanjung Malim, Perak. It occupies a substantial piece of land on the east side of the Tanjung Malim main road, across from SMK Methodist Tanjung Malim.

Sultan Idris Education University is one of the oldest teaching institution in Peninsular Malaysia. Its history goes back to 1913, when it was established within the residence of Perak nobleman Ngah Ibrahim, and was originally called the Matang Teacher Training College, and was located in Matang, just south of Taiping.

In 1922, the Matang Teacher Training College was relocated to Tanjung Malim, and renamed in honour of Sultan Idris Murshidul Azam Shah, the 28th Sultan of Perak, becoming the Sultan Idris Teacher College. Originally, the college only took on male students. It had its first intake of female students in 1976. In 1987, the college underwent another name change, becoming the Sultan Idris Teachers Institute. That was when it teamed up with Universiti Pertanian Malaysia (now called Universiti Putra Malaysia) to offer degree courses.

The Sultan Idris Teachers Institute was upgraded to a full university on 1 May, 1997, and is now called the Sultan Idris Education University. The campus of the university in Tanjung Malim is called the Sultan Abdul Jalil Campus.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
