The timeline… of my Chemical Engineering Plant Design group… The one I have here are from 2018, 2017 and 2016.
Hmmm… need to dig out to search for the other Plant Design group that I supervised 
🙂

My 2018 Plant Design Project SKKK students, Fitri, Haziq Almarz, Joey and Azini. The commitment, dedication, discipline and perseverance displayed by you guys mesmerise me. Well done!
Wishing you guys and the rest of your batch the best of luck in your new upcoming career as an engineer.
The topic: “Production of ethylene from palm oil mill effluent”.
Ini adalah harinya. This is the day!
All that have been studied by the students now comes to the end. The final plant design presentation. The students did marvelously well. They are indeed good batch of chemical engineering students graduated from the Faculty of Chemical and Energy Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia.
Today, I was invited to review the presentations from 3rd year student in the class of my other half, PM Dr. Mazura Jusoh. The presentations cover Oil and Gas up-stream, mid-stream, down-stream, as well as Mill processing and Edible oil Processing. It was great presentation and excellent exposure for the students before they go out to undergo the industrial training (Latihan Industri).
Today we had this “Waste Water Treatment Talk and Hands On” by Chemopharm at our Visiting Professor’s Room. The talk was attended by mostly postgraduate students and postdocs. They presented about the new technology on the waste water treatment plant (WWTP) industry as well as the latest tools to measure important parameters in the WWTP.
It’s an honour to officiate our Junior / Student Institute Engineer Malaysia (IEM) Chapter program last Saturday (5th May 2018). The program is held every year, but from what we were informed, the programs and activities vary from year to year. This round, the program was held at Faculti Alam Bina (Architecture Faculty) in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia.
Some of the contests were Water Rocket Challenge, building bridges from spaghetti string, submarine competition and many more. It’s amazingly interesting to see the efforts, joy, spirit, commitment as well as the creativity and innovation of the students (committee and participants). In my speech, I wish that this event can be continuously organized in future to encourage and entice our younger generation to embrace science, technology and engineering. InsyaAllah.
Alongside with my other half, Associate Professor Dr. Mazura Jusoh and the Operation Manager of SGSHOP, Mr Lua, we became the judge for this amazing Water Rocket Challenge. The participants were mostly standard 5 students, who I must admit surprisingly outstanding technically, when it comes to building and designing such water rocket.
With my siblings after voting.
It’s our responsibility to vote for our own leaders. That’s what we have done together.
Today, I implemented Cooperative Learning (CL) technique in my Master’s Safety Class. It was interesting and I think it can be implemented with some additional improvements on my side.
What is Cooperative Learning?
Cooperative learning is a successful teaching strategy in which small teams, each with students of different levels of ability, use a variety of learning activities to improve their understanding of a subject.
Following are few details on the CL implementation in my class:
Syukur Alhamdulillah. Ulang tahun pernikahan kami yang ke 17 hari ini.
My beloved wife Mazura Jusoh, terima kasih kerana melengkapkan hidupku. You complete me. Thanks for everything. Love you always.
