    Dublin Metropolitan university, Ireland

    Claims to have goverment recognition from MALAYSIA. Is This a real University or a fake organization operating from Ireland and Malaysia.

    Their Malaysian Government recognition is definitely seems to be a fake document.

    Any comment are welcome:

    ACCREDITATION

    Being legally registered in Ireland does not comprise government accreditation. Only State funded universities are within the accreditation system. DubMet is an independent university. There is no current official means of accrediting such bodies in Ireland. But being registered in Ireland renders the university subject to the provisions and the scrutiny of the laws of the government of the Republic of Ireland. At present DubMet seeks recognition through academic, professional and business communities via:

    Recognition by professional bodies; Voluntary assessment of programmes and accreditation by independent accrediting bodies
    Membership of international educational bodies and learned societies;

    Degrees are not designed to meet any particular professional licensing or other requirements. The student should ensure that the degree sought is suitable. Applicants make their own enquiries, by contacting their relevant local bodies.
    Overseas Recognition

    The Malaysian Government’s Jabatan Perkhidmatan Awam recognises the EMBA, MBA and DBA or PhD offered by Dublin Metropolitan University dated July 2001 to its recruitment representative in Malaysia.

    Dublin and the equally non-wonderful Calamus have claimed accreditation from the unrecognized Non-Traditional Course Accreditation Board. Last time I checked, both domains were registered to "Dr. Morris Berg."

    If memory serves me, there exists a real Dublin City University. I took my TOEFL and GRE teses there. No doubt this fake tries to be confused with the real thing.

    Irish firms face action - Not just DMU

    There's a piece in today's Times Higher Education Supplement (www.thes.co.uk but THES is subscriber only) about DMU and others.

    Steps are being taken to see if five Irish companies calling themselves universities can be deregistered by the Companies Registration Office (CRO) in Dublin.

    Discussions have taken place between the Department of Education and Science and the CRO while officials review legislation to see if it can be used to prevent unaccredited institutions from marketing themselves abroad as universities.

    The five are the Dublin Metropolitan University, Irish International University of Europa (IIUE), European University of Ireland, Irish University Business School and Warnborough University.

    There's further details in the piece about acclaimed accreditations and Trinity College solicitors threatening IIUE etc.

    Hope this is of interest to some.

    I guess nobody's pulli-Ng the Wool(ler) over the Companies Reg Office's eyes.

    Now, whatever happened to "Dr" Sweeney?

    It doesn't appear to be an Irish university. That's the point.

    If this business wants to insist that it's a Chinese university, then it can try convincing the Chinese authorities of that. But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with Ireland or with Europe, beyond a business registration there.

    To my mind, that's convincing reason to think that it probably is a degree-mill.

    You aren't the one finding the information. Just look through your posts, you are the one generating.

    Beyond all that I'd just want to say that the 2 "documents" linked by iceskat don't mean too much. Anyone with a half-decent graphics software package could produce junk like that. With just a bit of preparation I'll bet that I could create some documents that indicated that I was a Nigerian Princess, fleeing persecution, and if you'd only give me your SS# and bank account # I'll transfer hundreds of thousands of dollars into your account . . .
