“Sustainability” being one of our core values at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) is translated through our long-established collaboration with industry partners in Research and Teaching. The fast-changing technology and the need for industries to adopt new tech to stay ahead can be achieved by working with Universities.

This complementary and synergizing nature has been UTM’s focus to ensure impact can be realized. UTM takes pride in working closely with UMW since 2018 and to date has completed seven research contracts which have proved to be successful and utilized at HSE, UMW Aerospace located at Serendah, Selangor.

This year, UTM, lead by the Vice-Chancellor, YBhg Prof. Datuk. Ts. Dr. Ahmad Fauzi bin Ismail is honoured to receive the President & CEO of UMW, YBhg.
