Mohd Roslan bin Sulaiman is a Malaysian academic administrator. He was the Vice-Chancellor of Universiti Putra Malaysia from 1 September 2020 until 31 August 2023. He obtained his degree in Veterinary Medicine from Universiti Pertanian Malaysia in 1994 and doctoral degree in Nervous System Physiology from University of Edinburgh in 1999. As of 2020, he has published more than 200 research results in high-impact journals.[2]
Less than six months after he was appointed as Vice-Chancellor of UPM, the Ministry of Higher Education furloughed him from the position without giving any reason. The furlough period was from 18 February 2021 until 17 March 2021, but has since been extended indefinitely. The ministry also instructed the UPM's Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Innovation) in lieu of Vice-Chancellor's position.[3] Four months after he had been furloughed, he resumed his position as Vice-Chancellor of UPM from 21 June 2021.[4]
