HOME | INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF AQUACULTURE AND AQUATIC SCIENCES i-aquas

Welcome to i-AQUAS UPM, where we have a dynamic team of 28 dedicated experts, led by our esteemed Director, Prof. Zaharin.

 

With a strong focus on aquaculture and marine research, we are committed to exploring innovations and sustainable solutions that can advance the industry and protect marine resources. Together, we strive to create a brighter future for aquatic environments and the communities that depend on them.

Aquatic resources in Malaysia are a valuable treasure that must be preserved for the well-being of not only the current generation but also future generations. With an extraordinary diversity of species and unique ecosystems, the potential of these aquatic resources is limitless, particularly in the production of natural products that support the food, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, medical, and aquaculture industries. We are committed to ensuring that this legacy continues to thrive and benefits both society and the environment.

The International Institute of Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences (I-AQUAS) offers Master's (MSc) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) programs in various fields related to marine and aquaculture studies. Some of the study areas offered include:

  1. Aquaculture Biotechnology (AkuaLab)
  2. Mariculture (AkuaLab)

AUG 2026 - Capturing Carbon with Algae: Turning Nature’s Potential into a Climate Technology
As the world continues to address rising carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions, innovative approaches to carbon capture are becoming increasingly important. One promising solution comes from an organism that has existed for billions of years: algae. Algae are highly efficient photosynthetic organisms that naturally absorb CO₂ and convert it into biomass and oxygen. Recognising this potential, ALcarbo Technologies has developed an algae-based photobioreactor (PBR) system designed to capture CO₂ while producing useful algae biomass.
