Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), through the Office of Research & Industry Networking, Faculty of Chemical Engineering (FKK), successfully hosted two alumni engagement programs — FKK Echo: Voices of Our Alumni 1.0 on 23 July 2025 and RE-ENGAGE FKK (Reconnect, Empower, Grow) 1.0 on 31 July 2025 at UiTM Shah Alam. Both initiatives aimed to strengthen oil and gas engineering alumni–faculty ties while enhancing student development.
FKK Echo connected 27 final-year Oil and Gas Engineering students with alumni. His sharing on industry challenges and opportunities inspired students to prepare for career transitions while fostering valuable alumni linkages. Building on this momentum, RE-ENGAGE FKK 1.0 gathered 60 students, lecturers, and six alumni representing Petronas, Halliburton, Interwell, Diamond Key International, Petronas Carigali, and McDermott. The half-day forum included panel discussions and Q&A sessions, exposing students to diverse career pathways, technical expertise, and mentorship opportunities.
Beyond technical knowledge, both programs emphasised soft skills, leadership, and networking, equipping students with critical thinking and collaboration competencies. These engagements highlighted alumni as strategic partners in education, supporting UiTM’s mission to produce industry-ready graduates with the professional agility to lead Malaysia’s energy transformation.
