TEDxUTM 2023 – Masquerade – Done and Dusted

It was an amazing TEDxUTM 2023 event, I must say. It was the first time we organized it in the Face to Face platform after suffering from the fear of the pandemic. 

I am not only a lecturer, a researcher, and an administrator, but I am also the Advisor of the new TEDxUTM student society which was just successfully registered under the Student’s Affair Deputy Vice Chancellor office.

I have shared my feelings and pictures on my Facebook and feel free to click the LINK HERE to read and flipped through our colorful event.

MYRA Internal Audit for RMC Project Monitoring Division

Before Ramadhan, I was involved with the Centre for Engineering Education (CEE) UTM MYRA internal audit. But today, I was wearing a different hat. I am now attending another MYRA internal audit but wearing a hat as the Deputy Director of Research Management Centre (RMC) UTM, as a team that handles all project and monitoring.

That day our team consisted of Hani, Sapiah, Mazlan, Tariq and Illani. The auditor was PM Dr. Juhana from AMTEC, appointed by KPT.

New Challenge, New Responsibility

I hope to give the best I can for UTM and the Ummah. I seek everyone’s cooperation and assistance in my new role. May Allah ease the work and process.

Effective on the 23rd of April 2023, I was appointed as the new Deputy Director of the Research Management Centre (RMC), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). I will be handling the Management and Monitoring of Projects portfolio.

It was very unfortunate that I can’t lead the Center for Engineering Education (CEE) anymore. However, I am still a CEE research fellow and will do my best as well to support and uplift Engineering Education to its peak.

Thanks to all CEE members and staff for all the support and help given during my tenure as UTM CEE Director for the past 2 years.
