Our strategic framework is focused on building a “House of Excellence”. Supported by five strategic pillars - Income generation, Teaching and learning, Research and innovation, Talent, and Entrepreneurship, this “House of Excellence” will propel UM in its journey towards realizing its Mission and Vision over the next five years.
With the implementation of these initiatives UM is expected to: achieve financial independence; produce graduates who are agile, resilient and able to adapt to an ever - changing world; and provide solutions for real world problems with the implementation of research output.
Serving the nation, Impacting the world. In line with the Shared Prosperity Vision 2030, UM will ensure that it continuously supports efforts towards the improvement of the quality of life. We will continue our partnerships with industry, academic institutions and the government to ensure that our outputs are in sync with the needs of the nations and the world.
Excellence in execution. We will never compromise on our values and the quality of our work. Excellence has always been at the core of everything we do - university operations, teaching and learning, research, and services. It will continue to remain the driving force in all our future endeavors. We will play a leading role in realising our nation’s aspirations, and contribute towards the United Nations’ Sustainability Development Goals (SGDs).
Without our stakeholders, we are but a ship without sails. Our students, staff, strategic partners and collaborators, the industry, government agencies, alumni and society - we will forge a lifelong bond with all of them, striving to understand their needs so that together, we will make the world a better place.
