Official Launch of Nutrition Month Malaysia 2025
19 June 2025 | Faculty of Food Science and Nutrition, UMS
The Nutrition Month Malaysia (NMM) event at Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) is more than just a nutrition education and promotion campaign. It serves as an important hands-on learning platform for our students, especially those in the Nutrition Program.
Throughout the event, students not only apply the knowledge they have gained but also get involved in creating educational materials, managing programs, practicing professional communication, and—most importantly—developing value-based leadership and making a social impact.
These activities provide students with valuable opportunities to develop various soft skills, aligning with UMS’s vision of producing graduates who are competitive, ethical, socially responsible, and focused on holistic health and wellbeing.
The program also highlights the role of the Faculty of Food Science and Nutrition in showcasing the university’s expertise in nutrition, not only through research and teaching but also through active community advocacy and collaboration with multiple sectors.
The event was attended by YB Datuk Ts. Mustapha Sakmud, Deputy Minister of Higher Education; YBhg. Professor Datuk Dr. Kasim Hj. Mansor, Vice-Chancellor of Universiti Malaysia Sabah; and YBrs. Professor Ts. Dr. Hasmadi Mamat, Dean of the Faculty of Food Science and Nutrition.
