HISTORY OF THE
FACULTY
First established in 1959 as the Department of Economics within the Faculty of
Arts, University of Malaya in 1959. The Faculty of Economics and Administration
(FEA) was founded in May 1966 to meet the nation's growing demand for a
professional workforce. Beginning with just 14 students and three academic
personnel, headed by Royal Professor Ungku Aziz, FEA has evolved into a
flourishing academic community of 1076 students, and 58 academic staff, among
them professors and lecturers with international reputation in their respective
fields.
Drawing the strength of four departments; Economics, Administrative Studies and
Politics, Development Studies and Applied Statistics, FEA currently offers the
Bachelor of Economics degree, and four programmes at the postgraduate level,
Master of Economics, Master of Public Administration, Master of Applied Statistics
and Doctor of Philosophy. Of the 888 students, 486 are enrolled in the
undergraduate programme while the rest are postgraduate students, including 56
international students from various countries such as Indonesia, Iran, China,
Nigeria, Vietnam, Sudan, Pakistan, Mynmar, Tanzania, Kazaskhtan, Uzbekistan
dan Sri Lanka.
The FEA also administers the Population Studies Unit (PSU) that was set up in
1979 as part of the Population and Family Health Project funded by the World
Bank and the United Nations Fund for Population Activities. Research and training
on population related issues are conducted under the auspices of the PSU.
The FEA is intensively engaged in enhancing academic excellence in the
field of monetary and financial economics through the Tun Ismail Chair,
established in August 2000. As of 31st August 2008, there have been four
distinguished holders of the Chair, Professor Dr. Yilmaz Akyuz,
Professor
Ronald McKinnon, Dato' Seri Panglima Andrew L.T. Sheng and Professor Dr.
Takatoshi Ito.
In November 2006, the Royal Professor Ungku Aziz Chair was established to
honour the contribution of Royal Professor Ungku Aziz in the fields of education
and economic development. Professor Jefrey D. Sachs is the first holder of the
Royal Professor Ungku Aziz Chair. In conjunction with the establishment of the
Chair, the Centre for Poverty and Development Studies was set up at the Faculty
to serve as a focal point for academic work, research, consultancy and technical
assistance in areas related to poverty and development.
In upholding its research stance, the FEA collaborates wth the Malaysian
Economic Association in the publication of an international journal, the Malaysian
Journal of Economic Studies. FEA also has produced the International Journal of
Institutions and Economies (IJIE).

The course discusses the development of economic

ideas and theories since the ancient Greek (300 B.C.) to the
twentieth century (1970s 1990s). Concern of discussions is
on how past mainstream thought has contributed to the
modern economic thought. The discussions cover deviations
from orthodoxy, major methodological issues, the
relationships between the development of the theory and the
prevailing economic conditions, implications of socioeconomic policy, the development of modern
macroeconomics theory and modern heterodox economic
thought.

Course is on the aspect of environmental theory in

order for students to get a clearer view about the scope of
environment learning. Market theory emphasizes that
market efficiency will result in optimal allocation of
resources at all time. However, this occurrence is rare.
Therefore, this course exposes that market failure on the
other hand brings to external efects related to
environmental issues and solutions that can be taken related
to minimizing this problem. Discussions about the need for
development

Synopsis
The cost and availability of energy constitute important

inputs in production economics which are vital to the
economic growth of all countries. At the same time, energy
markets have historically been subjected to extensive
government intervention and the emergence of geo-political
crisis. As such, the existence of energy policy include the
move towards energy efficiency as well as finding
alternative sources which include bio-fuel and hydrogen fuel
cell that is considered as long term solution in stabilizing
energy needs. In the short run, the world over dependence on
fossil energy such as petroleum will persist to be an important
factor in influencing global energy market which is expected
to remain unstable and volatile.

The field of discipline will be determined by the respective Director of
Academy/Dean based on the
STPM/SPM results. Students can only choose
one discipline.
Successful applicants from the Faculty of Arts and Social Science will register in
Semester I. However, unsuccessful applicants from the Faculty will register for
the minor package in the Second Year (Semester I).
Students of both disciplines must take at least 33 credit hours inclusive of core
courses and elective courses ofered by the Faculty of Economics and
