DEAN’S MESSAGE














            It is my pleasure and honour to welcome all new students to the 2015/2016 Academic Year and thanks for making the
            Faculty  of  Education,  University  of  Malaya  your  preferred  choice.  This  established  Faculty  has  made  its  mark  not  only
            nationally but also globally.

            In line with the improvement in ranking of the University of Malaya in the international arena from year to year, the Faculty of
            Education has also been able to raise its standards to become one of the top 100 education faculties in the world. This
            success did not happen overnight but is based on years of toil by faculty members and students. Being 50 years of age, the
            faculty has continued to perform, and has succeeded in producing about 20 000 outstanding graduates.

            Our degree programmes not only provide students with sought after knowledge and skills, but also link theory to practice to
            better  prepare  students  for  the  workforce.  To  date,  our  graduates  not  only  shine  in  the  local  industries  but  many  are
            successful in the international arena as well.

            As much as we take pride in such successes, the Faculty understands it needs to consider the latest challenges faced by the
            nation. Hence the Faculty has taken the appropriate steps to educate and acculturate our new  graduates into becoming
            thinking individuals who can contribute  new ideas and capable of carrying out useful research at par with those from world
            class universities, but perhaps surpass them.

            To ensure sustained excellence, the university and faculty‟s mission and vision must be synchronised from every angle and
            be supported by  strong strategies directed at achieving our desired goals. Planning is done with utmost care so that future
            generations can reap the fruits of success from the seeds we have sown.

            Regards and all the best for your success.
