Energy Conservation

The usage of energy in the campus is a critical metrics tracked by the University’s Facilities Department. The management has identified initiatives that aims to reduce our energy usage per sqft of campus floor space occupied.

Air conditioning

The campus employs the latest in air-conditioning technology with an Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) that is almost 30% better than older systems. The system also requires no water supply thus further reducing water consumption.

The design for the campus emphasis on non-airconditioned corridors and open areas with air flow thus reducing the total air-conditioned floorspace. Air-conditioning to individual rooms can also be independently switched off thus reducing the total energy consumption throughout the day. Air conditioning in the offices areas automatically switched off at the end of office hours.

Sanitation & Hygiene

Hygiene and sanitation of the campus premise are given the uttermost importance. Campus including washrooms and toilets are cleaned regularly. There are also sanitary waste disposal services provided.
During Covid-19 pandemic, the sanitation of campus was enhanced further with the installation of hand sanitizers and posters reminding its usage. The campus was sanitized by the Fire & Rescue Department of Malaysia before students returned to campus in March 2021.
