MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN FACULTY OF ENGINEERING


Assalamualaikum w.r.t dan Salam Sejahtera
Welcome to the Faculty of Engineering, University of Malaya.
Engineering education, at the tertiary level, began in Malaysia in 1956 with the establishment
of the Engineering Department at University of Malayas Bukit Timah campus in Singapore.
Only a Bachelor degree course in Civil Engineering was offered then. The department was
upgraded to a faculty when University of Malaya relocated to its campus in Lembah Pantai in
1958. In the same year, the second bachelor degree course in Mechanical Engineering was
introduced. A year later, a Bachelor Degree course in Electrical Engineering was added to
the number of courses available to undergraduates. In 1970, the Faculty introduced the
fourth course, a bachelor degree in Chemical Engineering. All four courses were turned into
respective departments in 1974. In the 1996/97 session, the Faculty introduced six other
courses namely in Telecommunication Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Materials
Engineering, Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing Engineering and Biomedical
Engineering.
To-date, the Faculty has six departments i.e the Department of Civil Engineering,
Department of Electrical Engineering, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Department of
Chemical Engineering, the Department of Engineering Design & Manufacture and the
Department of Biomedical Engineering. The Faculty now offers 12 courses, with the latest
addition of the Bachelor of Biomedical Engineering (Prosthetics and Orthotics), which was
introduced in the 2009/2010 session. All engineering courses, offered by University of
Malaya, have been accreditated 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 stakeholders vision of producing responsible, multi-talented and
highly qualified engineers of excellent leadership quality. This is evident from the
Programme Outcome and Programme Educational Objectives mapped out for each course,
offered.
In line with the global tertiary education scenario, efforts are in place to drive the Faculty
towards excellence and to ensure that the human capital produced by the university meets
current needs. Towards this direction, the Faculty has adopted the National Tertiary
Education Strategic Plan and inputs from various stakeholder programmes as the basis, to
improve the quality, competitiveness and creativity of each course offered. As a preliminary
step to ensure that all courses offered, are relevant to market needs, the faculty is reviewing
the overall curriculum in order to produce engineering graduates of high calibre.
Internationalisation is also the Faculty of Engineerings agenda and part of the thrust of the
National Tertiary Education Strategic Plan. Beginning with the 2007/08 session, international
students were also recruited to pursue engineering courses at the Faculty. With the
presence of international students, alongside Malaysian students, its the Facultys aspiration
to make the students adopt a more global and open-minded approach in order to enhance
their overall level of competitiveness. We hope all undergraduates will be able to
successfully complete their courses and be able to secure successful careers, upon
graduation.

BRIEF PROFILE
DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING

The Department of Chemical Engineering has its roots in the Chemical Technology course
which was established in the Department of Chemistry in 1965. The first intake of students
was in 1967 and the first group of graduates emerged in 1971. In 1975 the course in
Chemical Technology was renamed Chemical Engineering and was placed under the wings
of the Faculty of Engineering, University of Malaya.

The Department runs an eight semesters (4 years) undergraduate programme in Chemical


Engineering. The curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelors of Engineering (Chemical) is
designed to provide a proper balance between the fundamental aspects of Chemical
Engineering and applications to the operation, design, analysis of engineering systems. The
degree is recognised and accredited by Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC) under the
Board of Engineers, Malaysia (BEM) and the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE,
UK).

The Department also offers postgraduate programmes by research leading to the degrees of
Masters of Engineering Science in Chemical Engineering and Doctor of Philosophy.
