The administrative building of the campus.

The Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) Engineering Campus (Шаблон:Lang-ms) is located in Transkrian, Nibong Tebal, South Seberang Perai, Penang. The campus covers an area about 320 acres. It is located approximately 45 km from the Main Campus in Gelugor, Penang. The university has produced more than 50,000 engineers since 1986.

History

The initiation of this campus is aligned with USM's specific ambition, and government's general expectations to develop the studies in the engineering field in order to produce an all-rounder human capital that will be the heart and drive for the development and progress of the nation. It was started at the School of Applied Sciences, Main Campus in 1972. The era of engineering studies began at the university in 1984 when the school was restructured into two disciplines of studies and was named the School of Engineering Science and Industrial Technology. In accordance to the necessity of the development of this field of studies, encouraged USM to separate this field of study physically. Hence, the branch campus was developed to specifically cater the engineering field of studies.

Originally the campus was located in Seri Iskandar, Perak and back then the campus is known as Universiti Sains Malaysia Perak Branch Campus (Шаблон:Lang-ms, abbreviated as KCP). After operating there for 15 years (1986–2001), the campus was relocated to the present site and hence known as the Engineering Campus. The present campus area was an oil palm plantation and oil palm trees are still can be seen today at certain sections of the campus.

Location

The campus is in Transkrian. It is a very special area at the borders of three states: Penang, Perak and Kedah. The campus is about 4 km from Nibong Tebal, 4 km from Parit Buntar, Perak and 8.3 km from Bandar Baharu, Kedah. Other institutes nearby are Arumugam Pillai Industrial Training Institute, Nibong Tebal and Transkrian MARA Junior Science College.
