Message from The Dean

All engineering courses have been accredited by the
Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC), the Board of
Engineers Malaysia (BEM) in order for all undergraduate
engineering students to register with them, upon
graduation. All programmes have been structured such,
that they meet the nation and the stakeholder’s vision of
producing responsible, multi-talented and highly qualified
engineers of excellent leadership quality.

Our faculty offers the most responsive, dynamic, broad
and engaging range of knowledge in the engineering
world. My main focus in the Faculty of Engineering aside
from producing the attitude and respected students is my
hope that the engineering programs at University of
Malaya will become world-class and be among the top 50
by the year 2016.
