About
History
The journey from 1931 to 2012 has seen UPM being transformed from what was once a small agricultural school into what is today a leading learning and Research University which is well respected both nationally and internationally.
Education
In order to motivate the entire university community towards achieving excellence, it ensures that all the members, both students and members of staff, share the responsibility of strictly adhering to the demands of the University’s vision, mission and goals.
Research
The concept of research can be clearly defined by the element of re-searching that it encompasses within it. Research, in its most basic sense, is all about exploring a subject deep enough to discover, aspects that have not been examined or known before. Research, therefore, can be described as the central nervous system in which the process of securing knowledge takes place. For a University, where knowledge is the very reason for its existence, research becomes an indispensable tool, only through which true scholarship can be obtained.
