    Research

    ​In enhancing the learning experience of its students, UTP provides an opportunity for the industry to establish and sponsor research projects in UTP as part of a long-term programme that involves collaborations between UTP and major oil and gas industry players, among others, to pave the way for enhanced relationships between the industry players and academia.

    The main fund for approved research & development projects undertaken by UTP comes from the PETRONAS Petroleum Research Fund (PRF). These research projects encompass areas such as hydrocarbon, sustainability, health and transport infrastructure that are impactful to the communities. PRF through YUTP had awarded RM15,000,000 worth of research grants to UTP researchers in 2019.

    YUTP also works hand-in-hand with the industries to further encourage UTP researchers in enhancing research and innovation. For 2019, 3 corporations collaborated with YUTP to support the following research projects:
