The Research Event Management Section (REEM) section promotes Universiti Malaya’s research innovations at national and international platforms. REEM coordinates participation in high-impact exhibitions, competitions and award programmes acting as a bridge between academic research and global recognition. By showcasing leading projects and researcher achievements, REEM strengthens UM’s research visibility, industry engagement and societal impact.
The Research Journal Management Section (ReJMa) functions as the central unit for supporting and managing UM’s academic journals through training, advisory services, and technical support. It oversees DOI registration, journal databases, and the Open Journal Systems (OJS) to ensure efficient editorial workflows. ReJMa also provides strategic guidance to help journals meet national and international indexing standards, enhancing the quality, visibility, and global recognition of UM publications.
The Research Impact & Innovation Outreach Section (RIO) is a section under OVIS that identifies high-impact research and translates it into creative knowledge outputs including infographics, short videos, podcasts, media features, AR/VR experiences, and scientific comics.
