Developing Curricula for Energy and Environmental Course at Universiti Kuala Lumpur Malaysia France Institute (UniKL-MFI) through Knowledge Transfer Program

Depletion of global energy resources and global warming issues have been the theme topics of the world economic circle over the past decades. Looking at this scenario, it is essential to every sector including educational institution to play its role in engaging public and community at grass-roots l...
