HiCOE 2012
Centres of Excellence (Centres of Excellence, CoE) were established with the aim to drive Institutions of Higher Education (IHE) to stay competitive in the various fields of research, expertise and services both at the national and international level. The diversity of established CoE is an ongoing effort to acculturate and improve the quality of research and development (R&D) as well as other services offered by IHE. The recognition of a CoE at the Institutions of Higher Education is a step towards it becoming a Higher Institution Centre of Excellence (HICoE) of International repute. Through the injection of funds, recognized CoEs will be nurtured, guided and monitored to enable them to boost their achievement in their specific fields at highly competitive regional and international levels.- MOHE.
In recognition of establishing UNITEN as a Potential CoE and High Centre of Excellence (HICoE), RMC has organized a talk in April 2012 which was delivered by the esteemed Yang Berbahagia Prof. Ir. Dr. Jailani Mohd. Noor, Deputy Vice Chancellor (Research and Academic) of UTeM to share his experience and knowledge in the process of establishing centres in university as a HICoE and Potential CoE. Previously, YBhg. Prof. Ir. Dr. Jailani was the Director of Higher Education Excellence Planning Division, MOHE.
A series of lecture from experienced HICoE and Potential CoE Directors, have been devised to gear UNITEN and positioned ourselves as a renowned centre. Yang Berbahagia Prof. Dr. Nasrudin Abdul Rahim, Founder and Director of UMPEDAC also shared his personal experience on how UMPEDAC is recognized and established as a HICoE.
