The Students and Career Development (SCD) collaborated with the Research Management Centre (RMC) to spearhead the inaugural MSU Sustainability Symposium 2024: Green Skills.

Green skills are a set of competencies essential to promote a greener economy, sustainable development, and environmental education; their vitality and influence are inevitable to the current and future world population. Higher education institutions, bringing synergies between human capital and environment for the future, play primary roles in disseminating awareness and values.
Ever since the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG) were established in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly, MSU has embraced the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) framework in several key areas affecting research, publication, quality education, students, and community engagements. MSU's green initiative commitment to net zero carbon emissions by 2035 is demonstrated through energy efficiency measures, renewable energy adoption, waste management, and curriculum awareness.
To further amplify the scope of reach of green skills concerning climate change, circular economy practices in waste management, financial prosperity, graduate outcomes, and employment confidence, the SCD and RMC collaborated with the varsity’s strategic partners ranging from its local partnering institutions to its global affiliations in an impactful symposium held at MSU’s Performing Arts Theatre (PAT).

At the launching ceremony of the symposium, MSU President Professor Mohd Shukri Ab Yajid corroborated the symposium as the avenue to move forward in these SDG initiatives and address the challenges ahead.
“Bringing research into SDG, assembling stakeholders to subscribe to our values, impacting the community effectively, and instilling green skills among students and staff alike are the critical challenges needing attention,” said the MSU President.
