Abstract
Preface/Introduction With great pleasure, we would like to present to you the scholarly selected articles presented in the Regional Conference in Civil Engineering and Sustainable Development Goals in Higher Education Institutions 2020 (RCCE 2020), held between 23 rd and 24 th January 2021 conducted virtually via Whova Virtual Conference Platform in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Johor, Malaysia. This conference was sponsored by ASEAN Universiti Network/Southeast Asia Engineering Education Development Network (AUN/SEED-NET) under the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) Technical Cooperation Project. RCCE 2020 strategized to combine the transformation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) implementation in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) based on the requirements of United Nation for the year 2030 as well as to support the specific agenda in “The World in 2050” (TWI 2050). This aspiration was the global research and fact-based knowledge in transforming the indicated SDGs in a better way. Therefore, all the keynotes/ invited/ guest speakers explained their roles and contribution to the society, with SDGs related to R&D, innovation, technology and knowledge-transfer. Most of the issues and challenges were connected to the environmental application thereby strengthening the interaction between HEIs, Industry, Government and Community. As the world is still bound to the COVID-19 pandemic, travelling was restricted. For this, different parallel sessions were conducted virtually focusing on the theme “Localizing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Engineering with Look East Policy Partnership”. Participants around this region did not only share similar issues or problems faced but also forged strong partnership among the ASEAN countries to come out with viable solutions fitting this region. In line with the international publication requirements, manuscripts from sessions related to engineering field including structural, environmental, material science, green technology, geotechnical, transportation, water resources and wastewater were rigorously reviewed. We hope that the collection of accepted manuscript will provide insights to many academicians, researchers and specialist of particular field. List of Conference or sponsor logo(s), Committees are availble in this pdf.
