MJIIT JAPAN DAY OFFICIAL LAUNCHING OF RESIDENSI UTMKL
The Premier Lecture viewed through the prism of our Prime Minister of Malaysia YAB Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad sets the agendas supporting a global vision for greater collaborations between Malaysia and Japan. Drawing exceptional aspirations from the Look East Policy, the Malaysia-Japan International Institute of Technology (MJIIT), which is a Government-to-Government Project at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), accelerates a unique education approach impacting upon the trends, challenges and opportunities in higher education. MJIIT is fast becoming a platform for active industrial engagement and knowledge hub having had received a strong collegial support from Japanese partners including Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), The Japanese Chamber of Trade and Industry Malaysia (JACTIM) and 29 Japanese Universities Consortium (JUC).
Combining leading-edge scientific breakthroughs, technological developments and creative mindsets, these collegial supports are translated in collaborative projects with industry and other research institutes for MJIIT to embrace the unprecedented opportunity to be the hub for Japanese-oriented engineering education provider in the region. The MJIIT Perdana Scholarship Endowment provides an open platform for everyone to contribute for an affordable international education, reflecting a solid collaboration between Malaysia and Japan in higher education. It is hoped that the revisited policy will benefit MJIIT in many ways towards maintaining prosperity and social sustainability.
In line with UTM Synergy 4.0 towards bringing UTM from good to great, for universal well-being and prosperity, the Residensi UTMKL is set to be the new benchmark for Lifestyle @UTMKL. UTM introduces its very own innovative platform that connects the University with industry, community and society. UTM is the first local university to have such property and welcomes everyone to experience the lifestyle, which embodies and transcends the technological expertise and advancement of its distinguished professionals, whilst incorporating the ethics and traditions of the University. Residensi UTMKL is a glimpse of the beginning of UTM’s success in property management which will see more exciting future development to come.
