MUST UNIVERSITY
 

Malaysia University of Science and Technology (MUST) was established based on the belief that Malaysia has the ability to develop a major research and development infrastructure capable of making it a leader in the development of highly skilled human resources needed to accelerate economic development in high technology areas for itself and the region.

In 1995, the Prime Minister and his delegation made a working visit to MIT and endorsed the conceptualization of establishing a university based on the MIT model in Malaysia. An agreement was then signed in January 1997 to establish MUST
 

MUST serves and operates as a not-for-profit, post-graduate research university. Its formative years will be fully assisted and supported by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) USA, a world-renowned university noted for its education and research in advanced science and technology.

MUST aims to produce R&D leaders and critical thinkers in science and technology, to develop and manage cutting-edge indigenous technologies. It is a research-driven post-graduate university that is structured to emulate MIT's style of learning and training. With this strategic partnership, MUST benefited from MIT's extensive expertise in nurturing a research culture that is vibrant, innovative and purposive to our local environment.

The faculty of MUST comprises full-time and part-time adjunct professors, with a mixture of highly trained and well-experienced Malaysians and foreigners who meet the MIT's standards and requirements.

MUST is currently active in soliciting R&D sponsorship and forging strategic partnership with both local and international industries in pertinent niche area research through the establishment of Centers of Excellence in the areas of: Energy and Environment, Biotechnology, Information Technology and Multimedia, Automotive, Transportation and Logistics
