About

Yusri Kamin is a leading scholar in technical and vocational education, with a primary focus on preparing engineering graduates for the demands of Industry 4.0. His most-cited work, "Towards Industrial Revolution 4.0: Employers' Expectations on Fresh Engineering Graduates" (2018, 97 citations), critically examines the widening skills gap between university curricula and the rapidly evolving needs of the manufacturing sector. By analyzing employer expectations, Kamin identifies essential competencies—such as digital literacy, problem-solving, and adaptability—that graduates must possess to thrive in automated and cyber-physical production environments. His research provides a vital framework for reforming engineering education, ensuring that students are not only technically proficient but also ready for the technological disruptions of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Beyond this landmark paper, Kamin’s broader body of work continues to influence curriculum design and policy in vocational training across Southeast Asia. His contributions are particularly valuable for educators and policymakers seeking to align academic training with real-world industrial demands, making him a key voice in the ongoing dialogue between higher education and the future of work.
