Introduction
The Alternative Energy Research Centre of Mara University of Technology was
founded on 1 January 2008. Alternative energy refers to any source of usable
energy intended to replace the existing fossil fuel. Fossil fuel resulted undesired
consequences such as high carbon dioxide emissions and the major contributing
factor of global warming.
Great focus on alternative energy is due to its role as a means of fueling the
country economy instead of to much dependence on fossil fuel. Oil crisis that is
raging overseas, our country and home drives us to look at locally abundantly
available sources of energy such as river water, solar, biodiesel and may be
ethanol. With the potential depletion of oil resources becoming a reality it is really
important to look at those unlimited natural energy option.
The centre aspires to become the renowned centre for renewable energy
research and technologies for the benefit of our nation and also prepare our
graduates for the emerging markets under these new alternative energy
applications.

Introduction
Manufacturing is one of the contributing factors in Malaysia for achieving a
sustainable economic growth. About two decades back, Malaysia‟s
manufacturing sector for the first time exceeded the agriculture sector in terms of
contribution to the nation‟s Gross Domestic Products (GDP). Today, the
manufacturing sector contributes about 35% of the nation‟s GDP and contributed
about 30% of the workforce. Currently, Malaysia is facing a new era – the era of
advance technology for the manufacturing sector.
In order to be successful in a very competitive global market and to become a
fully developed nation, Malaysia must prepare its workforce for the future in a
very strategic manner. Technologies are changing and manifesting in a very
rapid manner and the market is no longer constrained to a limited national
boundary. To compete and being a successful global player in a turbulent and
unpredictable millennium, Malaysians must be more efficient, knowledgeable,
innovative, creative and adaptable to changing technology. One of the
approaches to achieve that objective is through education, continuous
education and training for its people. Centre of Excellence can become a place
where the staff and students are trained and prepared for new challenges and
where new researches will be initiated.
FME is planning to develop a new Centre of Excellence which focuses on
advanced manufacturing process and technology. The centre will be named as
“Advanced Manufacturing Technology Excellence Centre” or AMTEx for short.
The need for developing a Centre of Excellence in this field has been recognized
by other local universities years ago.
