Praveena Munianday

“Hi! I’m Praveena Munianday, an associate lecturer in the Department of Built Environment, Faculty of Humanities and Health Sciences at Curtin Malaysia, and I’d love to share a bit of my journey with you.

Coming from the lively and vibrant streets of Penang, I bring that same energy and enthusiasm to Curtin Malaysia. From the moment I stepped onto this beautiful campus, I knew I was part of something special – a community that feels more like a family, where collaboration and creativity thrive. The warm welcome from everyone at Curtin Malaysia has truly made this feel like home.

What I love most about teaching here is the opportunity to inspire students to think beyond textbooks and challenge themselves to reach new heights. My goal is to create an exciting learning environment where students feel empowered, motivated, and confident to explore bold ideas.

I believe education is a shared journey, so I aim to be more than just a lecturer – I strive to be a mentor and a friend, someone who gets the ups and downs of student life because I’m right there with them, navigating my own PhD journey.

Let’s make learning an adventure and work together to build a better future. If you see me around campus, don’t be shy – come say hi!”- Praveena Munianday, Associate lecturer in the Department of Built Environment
