“Small Changes, Big Impact”
The Faculty of Chemical Engineering & Technology (FKTK) remains steadfast in its commitment to environmental sustainability through the development of its very own Sustainability Corner — Laman Lestari.
This initiative incorporates key elements of sustainable development, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), education, recycling, energy, water conservation, and greenery.
Among the highlights of the initiative are creative reuse practices where materials such as used bottle caps, wooden pallets, cardboard boxes, and repurposed containers are transformed into both decorative and functional features across faculty spaces. These efforts not only enhance the working environment aesthetically but also promote sustainability awareness among staff and students, particularly the importance of reducing waste.
This green initiative reflects FKTK’s proactive step towards cultivating an eco-friendly, mindful, and conducive work culture — in line with UniMAP’s aspiration of becoming a sustainable campus.
