SCHOOL OF SCIENCE

Overview of Services

About Us:

Starting in 2024, the School of Science at Monash University Malaysia centralised and streamlined its analytical services, laboratory equipment rental, training requests and consumable purchases through an integrated platform, iLab. The platform provides a convenient, centralised access point for Monash University staff and students, as well as external universities, research institutions and industry partners, to access the School's laboratory facilities and services. Since its implementation, iLab has enhanced the visibility and accessibility of the School's facilities and services, improved service coordination, and facilitated more efficient engagement with both internal and external users.

Our team brings together multidisciplinary academic and technical expertise across various fields, including pharmaceutical sciences, natural product chemistry, environmental science, food science and biomedical sciences. Recognising that every research project has unique requirements, we are committed to providing tailored analytical solutions to address specific research and industry needs. Supported by modern, state-of-the-art laboratory equipment and specialised expertise, we strive to deliver reliable analytical services while continuously enhancing our capabilities to meet evolving research demands. We are also committed to strengthening our quality assurance framework, with the aim of achieving ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 17025:2017 certification to uphold high standards of service quality and analytical competence.
