Career options after SPM

Realising

your Dreams

as allied

Health Sciences
Professionals
Pursuing a career in Allied Health Science is becoming a choice among
students. From a lab technologist to a fully trained physiotherapist,
the opportunities are wide. Mr. Rafeeudeen Mohamed, Registrar of
MAHSA College talks about the careers in Allied Health Science.
At the moment, the most popular courses are Physiotherapy,
Pharmacy and Medical Lab Technology.

What core areas are covered by the

programmes? Are courses available at
different levels (i.e. certificate through to
degree what is the route)?

MAHSA offer programmes in the certificates, diploma and degree

levels. The general background of the programmes is science based.
Students in all programmes learn areas in anatomy, physiology,
pathology. Different programmes also carry individual subjects.
For example students in Physiotherapy learn Musculoskeletal,
Electrotherapy and Physiotherapy in Gerontology whereas students
in Pharmacy learn things like Pharmaceutical Microbiology and so
on.

What are the career options in the field of Allied A student after SPM has the decision of choosing to enter a diploma
Health Sciences? What are the prospects?
course directly or opt to do the A levels programme or an equivalent
There are many options in the field of Allied Health Sciences. Here
at MAHSA we offer Nursing, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Medical Lab
Technology, Medical Imaging (Radiography) and Environmental
Health. Students will be fully trained to later pursue a career following
their graduation of any of the MAHSA degree or diploma programmes.
This will enable them to work in any private or government hospitals
or health institutions.

What advice would you give to prospective

students who are thinking about careers in
Allied Health Sciences? For a student sitting
for SPM, how well should he/she do to enrol in
this course?

Go for it! The demand for Allied Health professionals in the health care
industry is high and rising not just locally but on an international scale.
The chances of employment are high mixed with the opportunities to
travel to various countries and undergo various working experiences.
The minimum requirements at MAHSA for any of our Diploma courses
are 3 credits in SPM including one science subject. This excludes the
Diploma in Dental Technology which requires 5 credits in SPM.

What qualities do students need in order to

succeed in the field of Allied Health Sciences?
Are generic or specialist skills needed?

programme. A diploma programme in MAHSA is a 3 year course,

followed by the student later completing their last 2 years of the
degree programme in MAHSA depending on the course chosen.

How much emphasis is placed on theoretical

knowledge and how much on practical skills?

I would say we emphasize 60% on theory and 40% on clinical

practical sessions. MAHSA emphasizes this in our Mission statement
where it states we will be committed to the delivery of education
of the highest quality with emphasis on hands on training and to
produce competent and highly skilled healthcare professionals
through qualified, dedicated and experienced teachers.

Can students complete the programme

overseas or is it possible to take everything in
Malaysia?

The diploma and degree programmes at MAHSA are fully conducted

in Malaysia. We are offering the students the chance to do an
international degree at a lower rate than studying abroad. However,
we do have plans to promote overseas options in time to come.

Other thoughts?

At MAHSA we welcome anyone with the heart and wish to pursue

a career in the Allied Health Science sector. The statistics show
that the country will need more than 54,000 allied health science
The basic qualities required by an individual choosing any Allied Health
professionals by the year 2020. There is a market for those with
Science profession is determination to succeed, be caring and helpful,

stressed patients in a smiling and polite manner at all times. The most

students?
