IntroductionThe concept of clustering UiTM’s faculties into 3 main field of studies was established in line with the restructuring of Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) in 2004. In the midst of fast-changing development in the local and international education arena, higher expectations from the university stakeholders were received and need to be met. The sacred role of promoting nation’s socio-economic development bestowed upon UiTM come along with greater challenges of promoting academic excellence and professional training. UiTM must strive to be the leader in promoting educational dynamism with broad spectrum and innovative product in the industry. Thus, the concept of clustering the faculties according to major study fields was embraced to enhance academic innovation in terms of programs offered as well as research and development.
