The congress served as a platform to exchange knowledge, share research breakthroughs, and discuss future directions in engineering and sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This&nbsp;annual&nbsp;event featured&nbsp;five major international conferencesunder one umbrella:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;<strong>2nd International Conference on Chemical Engineering &amp; Sustainability<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;<strong>7th International Conference on Mechanical, Automotive and Aerospace Engineering&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;<strong>10th International Conference on Computer and Communication Engineering&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;<strong>7th International Conference on Engineering Professional Ethics and Education&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;<strong>7th International Conference on Mathematical Applications in Engineering&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hybrid format allowed participants to join either physically or virtually, making the congress more inclusive and attracting wider international participation. Researchers shared studies on&nbsp;topics such as green technologies, advanced materials, smart communications, aerospace, as well as issues of ethics and education in engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event reflected the Kulliyyah of Engineering\u2019s vision to be a global&nbsp;centre&nbsp;of innovative engineering education and research with values and professional ethics. Many discussions linking technical knowledge with sustainability&nbsp;and&nbsp;community wellbeing.&nbsp;Sessions on ethics and education highlighted the importance of producing holistic engineers who combine technical expertise with integrity and accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This approach is in line with IIUM\u2019s&nbsp;tawhidic&nbsp;epistemology, where knowledge is not separated from faith and values. Engineering, in this sense, is seen as a trust (amanah) to serve humanity and care for the environment. The congress provided a platform where scientific innovation could be discussed together with ethical considerations, showing how both can move forward hand in hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry partners, academics, and students took part in keynote talks, paper presentations, and networking sessions. The exchange of perspectives reflected how the congress can help build collaboration and open new directions for research and innovation at both local and international levels, while staying true to the values that define IIUM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"975\" height=\"1396\" src=\"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_2870.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-185184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_2870.jpeg 975w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_2870-210x300.jpeg 210w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_2870-715x1024.jpeg 715w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_2870-768x1100.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 975px) 100vw, 975px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Adibah Bt.
