PG Best Student Award and 63rd Convocation

A very good year 2019 turned out to be. Mei Ling was awarded the Best Postgrad Student Award by SPS on November 1st 2019 at a ceremony in Pulai Spring Resort. This time around, the supervisor was given the honor to put on the bonnet on his/her student to symbolize the end of the student’s study journey. May have to wait a while for the update as the picture was only taken by SPS official photographer.

The next day on November 2nd 2019,  the 63rd convocation commenced. One surprising thing during the ceremony; found 2 other colleagues from Imperial wearing the same robe! So of course we have to take pictures 🙂

& because all 3 of us was lining up together at the stairs, even the professors were taken in by the uniqueness of our robes & had to have a picture with us 🙂

That aside, this is the ceremony to mark the PhD and some Master students achievement (some as in this is only the 1st session from the 4 days). Sulaiman (my 2nd PhD student) was supposed to be in this convo together with Mei Ling but he couldn’t come. Still, I’m very proud of my students and a big congratulations to them both & especially Dr Ng Mei Ling!
