Kota Kinabalu: Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) has been accorded the four-star rating by the Malaysia Research Assessment MyRA 2015. The MyRA instrument is used to gauge the research, development and innovation (R&D&I) activities in public universities and tertiary institutions with university status, the branch campuses of foreign universities and university colleges.

The outcome of the R&D&I assessment and achievement is categorised into six levels, with 'six stars' being the highest level and 'one star' the lowest.

The official result was announced by the Higher Education Department Director of Excellence Planning Division Professor Dr Raha Abdul Rahim.

UMS Vice Chancellor Professor Datuk Dr Mohd Harun Abdullah said the results were made known in an official letter dated Oct 13.

"Since 2013, the UMS MyRA recognition has improved from three-star to four-star in 2015.

This is the result of cooperation from all UMS staff and their commitment towards supporting the management to bring the university to new heights," he said.
