We're UPM Press
Established in 1977 with the approval of the University Council
UPM Press is one of the entities under the Office of Deputy Vice-Chancellor Research and Innovation, Universiti Putra Malaysia. The main role of UPM Press is to publish books, journals and other scholarly publications based on research, written by academicians from within and outside UPM.
Since February 1, 2020, UPM Press was upgraded and became the University Publishing Centre headed by a Director. Besides an Administration Section, there are also Editorial and Production Section, Design and Creative Media Section, Sales and Marketing Section and the Pertanika Journal Section. UPM Press runs its operation with income generated through the sale of published books and professional publication services offered to all the Responsibility Centres at UPM and agencies outside UPM.
The Pertanika Journals are the official journals of Universiti Putra Malaysia, dedicated to publishing high-quality scholarly research across a wide range of disciplines. Established in 1993, Pertanika has grown into a reputable platform for academicians, researchers, and professionals worldwide.
The journals are indexed in leading databases including Scopus, reflecting their global recognition and academic impact. With multiple issues published annually, Pertanika continues to uphold rigorous peer-review standards and a commitment to advancing knowledge in science, technology, agriculture, social sciences, and humanities.
