he Academic Affairs Division (Bahagian Hal Ehwal Akademik - BHEA) manages all academic affairs of the university. It was first established on 21 August 1969 when Institut Teknologi MARA (ITM) was first restructured. It was then headed by the Dean of Student Affairs. Initially, BHEA managed only nine (9) schools (which are now known as faculties) that offered 42 programmes. In 1988, ITM went through another restructuring. Three (3) Assistant Directors (Academic) were appointed to assist the Dean of Student Affairs. In 1998, ammendments were made to the ITM Act of 1976 that led to further changes. ITM was upgraded to a university status and hence named Universiti Teknologi MARA or UiTM.
Currently, BHEA is placed under the office of the Deputy Vice Chancellor (Academic and International). It has two Academic Directors:
The Directors are aided by seven Academic Heads overseeing the wide spectrum of core activities in BHEA:
- Head of Academic Development
- Head of Academic Operations Management
- Head of Academic Management
- Head of Curriculum Academic

- Head of Assessment & Evaluation
- Head of Academic Accreditation
- Head of Accreditation
BHEA now manages academic matters of 26 faculties and 2 academic centres comprising 500 programmes at the main campus and 35 state, branch and satellite campuses nation wide.
