   Biografi/ Biography :


  • Dr. Mohamad Azuwa Mohamed holds the esteemed position of Senior Lecturer and serves as the Head of the Catalysis for Renewable Energy & Environmental Sustainability (CaREES) research cluster at the Department of Chemical Sciences, Faculty of Science and Technology, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). He has dedicated himself to academic and scientific research pursuits, earning accolades and recognition both nationally and internationally. Dr. Mohamed`s academic journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Chemistry in 2010, followed by a Master of Engineering (Gas) in 2015 with the Best Student Award and Pro-Chancellor Award from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. His quest for knowledge led him to obtain a Ph.D. in Hydrogen Energy from UKM in 2019, solidifying his expertise in the field. He was honored with the Doctorate Golden Award during the 48th UKM Convocation in 2021 and received the Tan Sri Datuk Ong Kee Hui Postgraduate Chemistry Medal 2021 from the Malaysian Institute of Chemistry (IKM). Notably, he has been recognized among the World Top 2% Scientists for three consecutive years (2020, 2021, 2022) by Elsevier BV, Stanford University. His scholarly pursuits have taken him across borders, including being awarded the prestigious Endeavour Australia Cheung Kong Research Fellowship by the Australian government in 2018. His dedication to scholarly excellence was further recognized when he received the UKM Bitara Awards in 2019 and the UKM Excellent Service Award in 2023. Continuing his trajectory of success, Dr. Mohamad Azuwa was honored with the Malaysia Young Scientist Award 2023 (Physical Science) by the Ministry of Science, Technology, & Innovations (MOSTI), highlighting his significant contributions to scientific research and development. Presently, his research interests center on developing cost-effective semiconductor-based functional catalytic materials to address challenges in renewable energy and environmental sustainability.
