UiTM - Faculty of Art & Design

 

The UiTM - Faculty of Art & Design (famously known as AD), initially known as the School of Applied Arts, the Faculty of Art and Design was originally adjoined to the School of Architecture, Planning and Land Survey. Its temporary studios and classrooms were located at Petaling Garden, before moving to Section 17, Petaling Jaya in 1970. It was started with three full-time lecturers and two part-time lecturers. The first batch counted 33 students enrolled in the foundation course.

Ever since its creation, the School of Art and Design has espoused the philosophy of Institut Teknologi MARA, namely the belief that talent and interest, if nurtured properly and openly with the instillation of Islamic values, will produce individuals who are valuable to themselves, to society and to the country. In line with this principle, Institut Teknologi MARA - ITM upholds the objective to produce Malay graduates of calibre who are independent, knowledgeable and religiously educated, and who can thus compete in the world of business, science and technology.

Today, the foundation principle has evolved to encompass UiTM’s vision of becoming a world-class university by its fiftieth anniversary that will fall in 2006. In this context, FSSR, while forming Malay students to be well-rounded professionals who will play a role as agents of change and contribute to nation-building, also endeavours to fulfill the vision of becoming a world-class reference centre for local and global arts.

The UiTM Faculti of Art & Design offers studies from Diploma course to Degree course for Undergraduates and offers Master - coursework & research, to PhD as for Postgraduates.
