American University of Malta (Through ApplyMalta)

The American University of Malta (AUM) is a private higher-education institution in Malta that delivers American-style undergraduate and graduate programmes. It operates under Maltese higher-education regulation and is commonly promoted to international applicants through education pathways such as ApplyMalta. Programmes typically span fields such as business, engineering, computing/game-related studies, and other career-focused disciplines, with English as the language of instruction. AUM’s main campus is in the Cottonera area (Cospicua/Bormla), occupying restored historic dockyard facilities rather than a traditional sprawling greenfield campus. The university positions itself as an internationally oriented option in Malta, combining U.S.-style academic structures with a Mediterranean island setting and access to Malta’s EU location for study and mobility. As a smaller private university, AUM is generally oriented toward international recruitment and applied, career-aligned degrees. Prospective students using ApplyMalta typically receive application support and guidance for admission, visas, and related enrolment steps rather than applying only through a generic open portal.
