University-Industrial Networking






The centre’s networking

The centre will maintain close contact with the local academic community and industry, and establish and maintain extensive international networks, which engage industrialists, academics and policy makers. It draws together a range of expertise in areas of strategy, operations, technology, and policy. The centre will support new ideas, and promote new ways of doing thing through local, national and international networking.

Local networking: maintain a strong link with other faculties or research centres within UPM such as the engineering faculty and advanced technology research centre. Work with local governmental agencies and companies from regional industrial areas.

National networking: maintain a strong link with other research centres, institutions, and universities in the country. Maintain a link with the policy maker and non-governmental organisation. Interest, support and challenge from industry will always be a fundamental part of the centre’s national networking policy. Working with these professional bodies requires a professional mindset, confident, and competence back by our research capability.

International networking: maintain a strong link with international academic communities from UK, USA, China, South East Asian countries, etc. Interact with multinational companies that have their operations in Malaysia. The centre prepares to work with many parts of the world and maintains the strong international presence. This will consists of a constant dialogue with researchers around the world.

Industrialists and companies who work closely with the centre will benefit through enlarging their networking capability, interacting with academic and research communities from local and overseas, keeping track with the latest development in new management technology, knowing the latest development in management research, enhancing knowledge in manufacturing and service management, through a range of activities organised by the centre.
