About
Prof. Ir. Ts. Dr. Mohd Fadhil Md Din is a Professor of Environmental Engineering and Sustainability at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), with more than two decades of academic, research, professional and policy-engagement experience spanning environmental sustainability, water security, climate resilience and pollution management. Trained in Civil and Environmental Engineering, including doctoral research undertaken through the UTM–TU Delft/WOTRO collaboration, his work bridges environmental engineering science with real-world sustainability challenges. His research and advisory portfolio encompasses water and wastewater engineering, river and catchment rehabilitation, environmental impact assessment, pollution control, environmental biotechnology, circular economy, waste-to-resource systems, urban heat and climate adaptation, ESG–SDG integration and evidence-based environmental management. As a Professional Engineer, registered Technologist and Associate Fellow of the Academy of Sciences Malaysia, he has contributed to major research, consultancy and community programmes that translate technical assessment, environmental modelling and sustainability science into practical interventions for industries, governments, higher-education institutions and communities.
.Beyond engineering solutions, Prof. Fadhil's recent work increasingly addresses the governance and political-economy dimensions of sustainability, particularly pollution governance, resource security, the green economy, institutional decarbonisation and regional environmental cooperation. His national-level contributions have included the MyNET Zero 2050 agenda for sustainability in higher education, SIRIM's Circular Economy Technical Committee, Academy of Sciences Malaysia WEHAB++ water, environment and energy initiatives, UNESCO-IHP Malaysia, Department of Environment technical and policy activities, climate-governance initiatives and national research assessment panels. Internationally, his engagement through the International Water Association, AUN/SEED-Net, ASEAN Science Diplomate network and EU–ASEAN collaborations—including coordination of the Erasmus+ TUNE initiative on green competencies and future green leaders—provides a strong platform for examining how ASEAN environmental policy can move from fragmented commitments towards science-informed, measurable and investable regional action. His current intellectual focus connects environmental evidence with policy implementation, climate resilience, green skills and financing, pollution accountability and transboundary cooperation, positioning sustainability not solely as an environmental objective but as a foundation for regional resilience, economic competitiveness and long-term human and ecological security
