Summary: | The impacts of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR4.0) on our life is well noted. The future job market landscape will drastically change and needs to be addressed by the Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) for graduate employability. This paper presents engineering education for IR4.0 in the context of Malaysia. The initiatives taken by the Ministry of Education Malaysia (MoEM) in addressing the challenges of IR4.0 for the higher education sector is discussed. This work assessed the IR4.0 knowledge amongst industries, the adoption, the readiness and the skill sets required for future-ready engineers. This is followed by an overview on the approach taken by one of the public universities in Malaysia in addressing the needs of IR4.0 through its undergraduate engineering programmes. |
