Rohani Binti Hj Arshad RN, RM, PhD, MSc

Prof Dr. Hjh Rohani Hj Arshad is an Adjunct Professor at Mahsa University & Director of the Nursing Professional Group. Rohani has been a practicing nurse and administrator since 1973 when she graduated from St George Hospital, Kogarah, Australia. Starting out as a registered staff nurse, she rose through the ranks, serving in various capacities at the University Hospital (now known as University Malaya Medical Centre) under the Ministry of Education, Malaysia.

Twenty-five years later, then serving as a senior matron, she decided to buck the trend by continuing in nursing administration and moving into nursing education. She did this after securing her Master of Science degree in Nursing and Education at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. Rohani became a lecturer and later the head of the department of nursing sciences with the Nursing Education Unit under the Faculty of Medicine, University of Malaya. She retired as an associate professor in 2008.
