A group of students from Hin Hua High School, Selangor paid a visit to UTAR
Sungai Long Campus on 7 June 2022. The group, which was comprised of 40
Senior Middle Three students, was led by their teacher Lim Shuang Ao.
The visit featured a presentation session and workshops which were conducted
by staff members from the Lee Kong Chian Faculty of Engineering and Science
(LKC FES). Giving an introduction on LKC FES Programmes to the students was
Dr Goh Choon Hian from the Department of Mechatronics and BioMedical
Engineering. In his presentation, Dr Goh provided a brief explanation of all
the courses and career prospects in engineering and science. Dr Goh also
mentioned that the University focuses on the students’ learning outcomes.
“We always set course outcomes and targets for students. Students need to
know what they need to learn at the end of the course,” he said.
Following the presentation was an introduction to Robotics and a
demonstration of KUKA Robots by Ir Dr Danny Ng Wee Kiat from the Department
of Mechatronics and BioMedical Engineering, a demonstration of concrete
casting by Dr Lee Foo Wei from the Department of Civil Engineering, and a
hands-on workshop titled Magnetic Carbon in Wastewater Treatment by Ts Dr
Shuit Siew Hoong from the Department of Chemical Engineering.
During the workshops
The presentation and workshops aimed to enhance students’ understanding of
the programmes offered by UTAR LKC FES, for example, the content of the
engineering course and its method of delivery. Besides, students could also
gain a better understanding of the courses along with the possible career
prospects and some ideas about their academic life at UTAR.
“We always hope students can decide on an educational pathway that suits
them and their needs,” said Lim. He believes that knowing more information
about courses and the possible future career paths would help students plan
better for their future.
