PHM3314 Industrial Training Viva

Viva will resume Monday 24-August-2009. I apologise for the inconvenience. Some of the personnel involved were afflicted with influenza-like illnesses. Thank you.

Class for Writing Reports

Due to time constraint, the class will be shifted from Thursday to Wednesday. According to earlier schedule, the final class before mid-sem exam will therefore be on Wednesday, 26-August-2009 12:40.

I have not scheduled any class after exam. Please advise. Thank you.

Class for Writing Reports

There will be no class tomorrow. The Kulliyyah is having Journal Critic Forum at 12:30.
Thank you.

Cancellation of class

Our writing class which was scheduled this Thursday, 13/8/09 is cancelled. I have to go to KL for a compulsory workshop.

I have also been requested to look at the possibility of rescheduling the class to other days. Thursday seems not appropriate because of the final year students attending hospital attachment.

If you have suggestions, please email me. Thank you.

Enrolment for post-graduate degree

Graduating students who are interested in pursuing post-graduate degree, please seek advise from potential supervisors/lecturers.

You may apply for 'Skim Bantuan Pengajian Ijazah Lanjutan' upon confirmation of your registration. The form is available from MOHE website.

Status of Credit Hours for Industrial Training

For 2008/9 session, the credit hours shall remain at FOUR (4). The Malaysian Qualification Agency (MQA) has advised the university that the nominal hours for industrial training shall be 80 hours for ONE (1) credit hour.

Thus, to have SIX (6) credit hours, total hours required is: 80 h x 6 = 480 h. This may translate into 5 days a week at eight hours a day to be carried out for 12 weeks.

This will take the whole of semester 3 i.e. 8 weeks and the total of 4 weeks for the inter-semester vacation. Total 12 weeks.

Further, so far, there was only ONE occasion whereby ONE manufacturing plant took our students for 12 WEEKS.

Conclusion: FOUR credit hours only for Industrial training in 2008/9 session.

My Writing Class

The best laid plans have some hiccups - as all best laid plans (and yet people still insist on calling it 'best laid plans'; Sidney Sheldon for instance!).

The two classes scheduled for this month are cancelled due to (err... you can call these excuses - but it is impossible to have a class when you have to sit for an exam!): exam Tue 10/2 and I am attending a seminar Tue 24/2.

I will be around same time same place Tue 10/3 and Tue 24/3 - what a coincident! The class is for you, the pleasure to contribute is mine........WELCOME!
