Universiti Putra Malaysia received a courtesy visit by delegates from the National Council of Professors [Majlis Profesor Negara (MPN)] led by its President and Chief Executive Officer, Prof. Datuk Dr. Raduan Che Ros. The visit is not only to bridge the link between MPM and the University but also to create a new history with the setting up of the UPM Chapter of University Council of Professors (MPUPM).

 

The setting up of the UPM Chapter MPUPM was officially established via its first meeting held at the Senate Hall, Canselori Putra Building. The ceremony began with a welcome speech by Professor Datin Paduka Dr. Aini Ideris, UPM Vice-Chancellor. MUPM aims is to collaborate with MPN's activities, and more importantly to generate ideas, and efforts to assist the government in nation's development agenda. In addition, this initiative is also to highlight and promote professors' contributions to the public.

 

Prof. Datuk Dr. Raduan Che Ros also briefed on the main activities of MPM which include community outreach, policymaking and research involving the Government policy.

 

During the meeting, Prof. Datuk Dr. Mad Nasir Shamsuddin has been named as the first Chairman of MPUPM. The meeting was attended by more than 70 UPM Professors.
