UTM students are encouraged to go abroad for exchange program, summer school, Global Outreach Program (GOP), internship and many more. Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) has long participated in a wide variety of collaborative relationships with universities, other institutions and individuals in many countries. This cooperation has been valuable to the University and provides exposure to new ideas and new perspectives. Various funding opportunities can be obtained through UTM International website (http://www.utm.my/international/).
This two-day course on supervisory was good for new young lecturers. Sharing from our seniors was very useful for us to supervise our PG students.
Final year Plant Design presentation was successfully held on the 7th June 2016. Well done to all.
This year FKT received five students from Prince of Songkla University Surat Thani for internship program. They will stay in UTM for 2 months and doing projects in the lab.
Alhamdulillah, one of my Masters students that I co-supervised has officially finished her study and will graduate this coming October. Congratulations Reiza Mutia! She is indeed a hardworking student.
10th – 11th August – A workshop on “An Introduction to Responsible Conduct in Research” organized by Akademi Sains Malaysia and US National Academy of Science was held at the MARTRADE Tower Kuala Lumpur. The workshop was handled by professional facilitators from US National Academy of Sciences; Dr. Alistair Hay, Dr. Elizabeth Heitman, Dr. James Stith, Dr. Lida Anestidou and Dr. Jay Labov. The participants were introduced to several case studies involving responsible conduct in research, various methods on teaching (active learning, etc) and we were given opportunities to discuss in the group and present our ideas.
10 June – Final year students 4SKKB had finally presented their final plant design project. Well done to all especially my design group (Rachel, Khairul, Nadiah, Aisyah). They have completed the project on the “Design of 30,000 MTA Cocoa Butter Equivalent (CBE) Plant”.
On 20th April 2015, the 1st ICRIL-International Conference on Innovation in Science and Technology (IICIST 2015) was held at Menara Razak, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The conference was organized by Science Development Network Leadership Center (SDNLC), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). It is aimed at facilitating multidisciplinary research and stimulating collaborations between researchers in Malaysia and their counterparts around the world, broadening and deepening global understanding of the various challenges in innovative research and development, as well as knowledge economy and business, while advancing alternative solutions to business and development challenges. IICIST 2015 provided a forum for accessing to the most up-to-date and authoritative knowledge from both industrial and academic worlds, sharing best practice in the field of Engineering, Science, Technology, and Management towards sustainable development.
Two of my Masters students, Shafinas and Reiza have participated in this conference, presenting their work on “Antioxidant properties of rice bran oil from different varieties extracted by solvent extraction methods” and “Optimization of cocoa butter equivalent production from formulated hard palm oil mid-friction and canola oil blends”.
On the 16th March, my first Masters student (co-sv with Prof. Ida) Reiza has defended her Masters thesis titled “Production and characterization of cocoa butter equivalent using hard palm oil midfraction and canola oil blends”. The examiners were PM Dr. Zainal (UiTM) and PM Dr. Lee Chew Tin (UTM). She has done very well in her viva. Congratulations Reiza!
