History
Sunway College is part of the Sunway Education Group, which in turn stems from the Jeffrey Cheah Foundation.[7] The Foundation is a registered charity, established in March 2010 from its predecessor Sunway Education Trust that was created in 1997.[8] Besides Sunway College, the Sunway Education Group also includes Sunway University, Monash University Sunway Campus, and Sunway International School.
Like all educational institutions in the Sunway Education Group, the College has charitable status.[9] Thus, surpluses are channelled towards scholarships and bursaries, as well as research grants.[10]
On 25 July 2017, Sunway Education Group celebrated its 30th anniversary.[11]
