UKM graduates throwing their mortar boards into the air at the varsity's 37th convocation.
It has been a grand 50 years of “Inspiring Futures, Nurturing Possibilities” for Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). The national university’s motto has guided its formation, vision and mission since its inception in 1970. From the day the idea for a Bahasa Melayu medium varsity was born, the public institution has aimed to produce top scholars, graduates and leaders.
UKM Vice-Chancellor Prof Datuk Ir Dr Mohd Hamdi Abd Shukor said its motto was inspired by a philosophy that includes the integration of faith in god and constructive knowledge, the amalgamation of theory and practice as the fundamentals in the advancement of knowledge, the building of an educated society, and the development of the university. “It emphasises the varsity’s function in nation-building through knowledge creation and excellence in implementation,” he stated.
