Abstract:
In the era of rapid technological change, engineering education must go
beyond technical competence to nurture ethical, responsible, and value driven engineers. Through the Value-Based Education (VBE) approach, UMS ALIEN champions a transformative learning culture that integrates ethics,
empathy, and sustainability into engineering practice. This initiative aligns
with the Malaysian Qualifications Agency’s (MQA) quality agenda and the
Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) framework, ensuring that
graduates are not only skilled problem-solvers but also conscious
contributors to society and the environment. By embedding values across
curriculum design, assessment, and student engagement, UMS is cultivating
future engineers who innovate with integrity and lead with purpose, shaping
a sustainable and inclusive future for all.
