Exciting news! Just wrapped up organizing the International Graduate Conference on Built Environment and Surveying (GBES) 2023. We’re thrilled to announce that we accepted 180 outstanding research papers for presentation.
It was an honor to have the Vice Chancellor of UTM officiate the event. I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to the Vice Chancellor for encouraging and supports our young researchers in becoming an innovating solutions researchers for our future nation.
The conference took place from September 17th to 18th, 2023, and it was an incredible showcase of the latest advancements in our field.
What makes GBES 2023 truly unique compared to the last two series is our effort to make GBES as Scopus indexed for participants.
Thanks to everyone who participated and made this event a success!
I’m honored to share that I’ve been appointed as a panel reviewer for the Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS). It’s quite a transition from being an applicant myself, but now I have the privilege of evaluating research grant proposals in the Technology and Engineering domain, as well as the Natural and Cultural Heritage domain. It’s truly rewarding to shift gears and help other applicants in their research endeavors. Looking forward to the journey ahead! #FRGS #ResearchReview #Technology #Engineering #Heritage

Celebrating the End of a Remarkable Research Internship!
I am thrilled to share an incredible 6-month internship journey of Aprillia Rahmi Utami from Institut Teknologi Nasional Malang (ITN Malang), Indonesia. As an intern, Aprillia came on board to UTM with zero knowledge in 3D city modeling, and it fills me with immense pride to witness her growth.
Throughout her tenure, Aprillia displayed determination and an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. She embraced challenges and continuously pushed her boundaries to learn and excel. Her dedication and hard work have yielded good results.
Aprillia has successfully created a stunning 3D LoD4 CityGML model for her Geodesy Building in ITN Malang kampus 1 and even conducted a groundbreaking 3D wind flow simulation for the ITN Malang campus.
Aprillia’s transformation from a novice to a proficient 3D city modeling student is an inspiration. It serves as a powerful reminder that determination knows no bounds when fueled by passion and a hunger for growth.
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts.” – Winston Churchill
I extend my warmest congratulations on this significant milestone, and I am confident that her future holds nothing but boundless success.
