History

• INTI began operating in 1986 in Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur, against a backdrop of economic recession, a shortage of places in public universities and the rising cost of studying overseas.1986 年，该校在经济衰退、公立大学学额不足、海外求学费用上涨的背景下于吉隆坡布里奇菲尔兹开始办学。

• The first cohort numbered just 37 students, and the institution takes its name from the Sanskrit word for essence, chosen to symbolise the philosophy of developing the innermost part of a person.首届学生仅 37 人；校名 INTI 取自梵语中意为「本质」一词，用以象征发掘个人内在潜质的办学理念。

• Within eighteen months the student population had risen to about 400, prompting the college to move to Jalan Sungai Besi in Kuala Lumpur in 1989.十八个月后学生人数增至约 400 人，学院遂于 1989 年迁往吉隆坡新街场路。

• By 1991 the college accommodated over 900 full-time students and established a permanent campus known as INTI College Subang Jaya, and branch campuses were opened in Kuching, Sarawak, in 1991 and in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, in 1996.到 1991 年，学院已可容纳逾 900 名全日制学生，并建立名为梳邦再也英迪学院的永久校区；1991 年与 1996 年又分别在砂拉越古晋与沙巴亚庇开设分校。
