West Yangon Technological University is located in Hlaing Thar Yar Township, Yangon Region, Myanmar. It is also located near the Industrial zone. West Yangon Technological University was established in December, 1999 and is a subsidiary of Yangon Technological University. It started as a standalone university on December 15, 2005 and it has now been in existence for over 15 years. Our University offers undergraduate and postgraduate courses. We are nurturing qualified engineers and architects in various fields of study in aid of the national socio-economic development and trying to establish an international recognized university by taking a lot of practice in teaching, research and creativity. Current activities include establishing a QMS system for teaching-learning and working to become an accredited university. QMS is one of the Engineering Education and Accreditation Committee (EEAC) criteria. Altogether 6 undergraduate programmes in our university have been provisionally accredited by EEAC followed the guidelines of Federation of Engineering Institutions of Asia and the Pacific (FEIAP). One of our future destination is that we try most of the programmes to be fully accredited by EEAC. We got ISO 9001:2008 certification in 2016 and ISO 9001:2015 in 2018.The most important future task is to build the quality culture within the institution. All are covered with quality, to say, all must be quality oriented such as quality in curriculum, syllabus, teaching & learning, assessment, teaching aids and facilities, and so on.
