FACULTY OF ENGINEERING The birth of the Civil Engineering Department in 1956 at the University of Malaya campus in Kuala Lumpur marks the beginning of tertiary engineering education in Malaysia. Expansion of the Faculty quickly ensued with the establishment of the Mechanical Engineering Department soon after (1956) and followed by Electrical Engineering Department in 1959. The Chemical Engineering Department established in 1975 completes the traditional Departments within the Faculty.

Master of Engineering Science and PhD, which are totally based on research. However, to cater for demands for alternative forms of postgraduate programme, the Faculty has totally revamped its Master of Engineering by coursework and dissertation beginning 2002 and latest by 2010. With the rapid advance in knowledge and technology in the engineering field, it is envisaged that the Master of Engineering programmes will continue to offer new and exciting courses in the future.
