Students Development Advisory Council Alumni Members & SEDEX44



Inspiring Young Generations

 

On 6th November 2020, Alumni Relations Office in collaboration with the Centre for Student Development and the Computer and Information Sciences Department organised a Virtual Coffee Chats Session with two members of the UTP's Student Development Advisory Council (SDAC).

 

The first speaker was Dr Putri Afzan Maria Zulkifly, Managing Director of EYTC Group & Resources Sdn Bhd and the Founder of KinderKaizen & Sri Aria School. The second speaker was Puan Maria Teo, Head of Organisation Development & Design, Human Capital Expertise at Group Human Resource Management of PETRONAS.

 

Both speakers were graduates in Bachelor of Information & Communication Technology and have been actively connecting back to UTP through their continuous support and expertise sharing on various relevant matters pertaining to student's development in the university. They gave encouraging examples based on their life journey, from their experiences' way back in campus to their own respective current careers. They focussed on positive values such as self-realization, mindfulness and being resilient in managing setbacks to achieve success in life.

 

The session was indeed inspiring as viewers listened on how these two prominent alumni leaders expanded their knowledge and skills from technology into people development and social skills, giving a sense of direction and insights into the possibilities that lie ahead, all for the betterment of the community.

 

Wishing them both all the best!

​SEDEX 44

 

The 44th Science & Engineering Design Exhibition (SEDEX44) has been successfully organized on 11 & 12 November 2020. The event with a theme of “Discover. Challenge. Innovate" was officiated by Assoc. Prof. Dr Nurlidia Mansor, Director of Centre for Student Development (CSD). This edition of SEDEX was participated by 336 students of 124 entries in 4 different categories.

 

Albeit the CMCO, we continue the legacy of SEDEX as a platform for UTP students to showcase their products and ideas in the name of creativity and innovation. In the era of digitalization, there is no excuse in providing the enriching and rewarding experience for our students even though it is through virtual platform. UTP acknowledged the hard work of our students including SEDEX44 Committee members in organizing this event, which showcased their teamwork, creativity, professionalism and project management capability despite being remote at more than 30 different locations nationwide.

 

Congratulations to  all award recipients, students and their respective supervisors for their achievements and  deepest appreciation to everyone who has made this event a success.
