Selangor, Malaysia – February 3, 2025 — Favoriot, a leading IoT platform provider, is proud to announce its latest Favoriot Partner Network (FPN) initiative to transform the landscape of IoT education through strategic collaborations with educational institutions. This collaboration bridges the gap between academic knowledge and industry demands by equipping students with practical IoT skills and industry-recognised certifications.

Empowering Students Through Two Key Approaches:

1. Embedding Favoriot IoT Platform into IoT Courses and Labs
   Educational institutions can directly integrate Favoriot’s IoT content into their courses, syllabi, and laboratory environments. This approach enables students to gain hands-on experience with real-world IoT platforms, fostering practical skills in device management, data analysis, and system integration. Upon completing these IoT courses, students will be awarded the Favoriot Certificate, co-endorsed by both Favoriot and the respective institution, enhancing their employability in the IoT industry.
2. Short-Term IoT Training Conducted by Certified Lecturers
   In addition to curriculum integration, Favoriot offers specialised 2-3 day IoT training programmes conducted by university lecturers. To ensure high-quality training, these lecturers must pass the Favoriot Certificate Examination to become certified trainers. This certification process guarantees that students receive instruction from knowledgeable educators who are well-versed in the latest IoT technologies. Students who complete these intensive training sessions will also receive the Favoriot Certificate, recognised by industry players.

Quality Assurance Through Certified Educators
Favoriot maintains stringent quality control measures by requiring that only lecturers who have successfully obtained the Favoriot Professional Certification are eligible to teach IoT courses or conduct training sessions. This ensures consistent, high-quality instruction across all partner institutions.

A Commitment to Industry-Ready Talent Development
“Our collaboration with educational institutions is part of Favoriot’s commitment to nurturing the next generation of IoT professionals,” said Dr. Mazlan Abbas, CEO of Favoriot. “By embedding our platform into academic environments and empowering educators through certification, we are creating a robust pipeline of talent equipped to meet the evolving demands of the IoT industry.”

“The spark of IoT innovation will transform students into architects of tomorrow’s interconnected world.”

Which Universities offer the best IoT education in Malaysia?

But how do we define the best IoT education?

As someone involved in building the IoT curriculum for universities and TVET institutions in Malaysia, I would like to share my perspectives.

Malaysia’s approach to weaving IoT into the academic fabric is cultivating a future workforce ready to navigate and shape the technological frontiers of the local industries.

How many Malaysian universities architect their IoT academia, spotlighting their holistic course offerings, cutting-edge lab environments, synergistic industry ties, and scholarly faculty?

Let’s dive deep into the traits of IoT Education leaders.

Crafting a Multifaceted IoT Curriculum

“Through the loom of academia, the comprehensive IoT curriculum weaves together the essence of innovation and application, shaping the pioneers who will navigate the technological frontiers of tomorrow.”

An exceptional IoT program must be characterized by its comprehensive and multidisciplinary curriculum, addressing all critical facets of IoT technology:

• Embedded programming
• Programming languages
• Microcontrollers
• Fundamentals of telecommunications (connectivity options)
• Data communications (protocols)
• Middleware (IoT Platforms such as Favoriot, Azure IoT or ThingSpeak)
• Mobile or web development.

Furthermore, it should delve into specialized skills such as:

• Data Analytics
• Machine learning
• IoT security

The curriculum’s design within these universities must be meticulously crafted to provide a deep dive into IoT’s theoretical underpinnings and practical applications, ensuring a well-rounded education.

Laboratories Equipped for the Future

“Within the crucible of our labs, theory is transformed into action, where every experiment brings us closer to the future we’re not just predicting but creating.”

Hands-on experience is indispensable in IoT education, necessitating laboratories with the latest IoT tech.

These labs are incubators for innovation, where students engage directly with IoT devices, navigate programming challenges with microcontrollers, explore connectivity through various protocols, and send data to the IoT platform.

They have become adept in harnessing IoT platforms (such as Favoriot) for:

• Data aggregation
• Understanding the IoT protocols such as MQTT, REST, or CoAP
• Mastering the art of data visualization and analytics.

This hands-on approach is critical, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application, ensuring graduates are proficient in both.

Fostering Industry-Academia Synergies

“The bridge between academia and industry is built on shared visions, where classrooms extend into the real world, and students emerge not just as graduates but as pioneers of IoT innovation.”

The symbiosis between academia and industry is a cornerstone of IoT education.

Universities with robust industry connections offer students unparalleled access to real-world IoT projects, internships, and the chance to earn IoT Professional Certifications.

These collaborative ventures are more than educational enhancements; they are a conduit to the practicalities of the IoT landscape, preparing students for the dynamic challenges of the industry.

Scholarly Faculty: The Pillars of Excellence

“Behind every great innovation in IoT, there stands a mentor from academia, whose wisdom lights the path from knowledge to wisdom, from classrooms to the cosmos of technology.”

The caliber of an IoT program is significantly uplifted by the faculty’s expertise and industry experience.

The distinction of Malaysian universities in IoT education can be attributed to their accomplished faculty, whose academic rigor and practical insights equip students with a profound understanding of IoT’s technical and business dimensions.

Their guidance ensures students are well-versed in the latest technological advancements and prepared to navigate the complexities of the IoT ecosystem.

Envisioning a Future Forged by IoT Expertise

“In the realm of IoT education, Malaysia is not just a participant but a visionary architect, crafting a future where technology serves as a bridge to an innovative, interconnected world.”

Malaysian universities are at the vanguard of global IoT education, heralding a new era of technological leadership.

By offering a curriculum that is both comprehensive and cutting-edge, fostering hands-on learning through advanced labs, cultivating industry partnerships, and being home to esteemed faculty, these institutions are laying the groundwork for IoT innovation.

The burgeoning demand for skilled IoT professionals underscores the significance of their mission, positioning these graduates as pivotal contributors to the local and global technological landscapes.

The achievements of these educational programs transcend national boundaries, marking Malaysia as a critical influencer in the IoT domain’s future direction.
