Ts. Dr. Mohd Hafizil Mat Yasin might have to deal with travelling for thousands of miles from Peninsular Malaysia and separated from his loved ones before he could complete his doctorate degree in mechanical engineering (fuel combustion), done on a part-time basis, at the Faculty of Mechanical and Automotive Engineering in Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP).

The distance was never an obstacle for him.

The Chancellor of Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) and the country’s reigning King, His Majesty Seri Paduka Baginda The Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah Ibni Almarhum Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Al-Musta’in Billah, has urged the university to place more emphasis on the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as one of the future drivers of tertiary education.

Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) looks forward to move ahead with its ‘Social Enterprise Technological University’ concept to ensure long-term self-sustainability, and reduce its financial dependency on the Federal Government’s annual budget provision.
