The second series of the fac@school program by FTKEE with SM Teknik Kuantan was successfully conducted. A total of 57 students from the Electrical Engineering Studies (PKE) course, along with 4 accompanying teachers, engaged in activities including a robotics demonstration in the robotics lab, a sustainable energy lab demonstration, and a site visit to a floating solar installation.
The program began with a briefing and welcome speech from the FTKEE Dean around noon. The students were then divided into three groups, with each group rotating through activities at each location, spending approximately 40 minutes in each session. The program also received support from the UMPSA Corporate Communications Center, FTKEE lecturers, and PJP FTKEE.

Alhamdulillah, the Workshop on Mapping POs, According to the New EAC 2024 and ETAC 2024 Standards, was successfully conducted on August 6 and 7, 2024, at Block F, Faculty of Computing, UMPSA Pekan.
This workshop aimed to remap the POs for all courses involved with the EAC and ETAC programs according to the new 2024 Standards. We also established the components of the Knowledge Profile (WK/SK/DK), Engineering Problem Solving (WP/SP/DP), and Engineering Activities (EA/TA/NA) based on the new 2024 Standards, and selected courses that meet the SDG components according to the EAC/ETAC 2024 Standards.

We are very pleased to welcome 68 students and 6 lecturers from Kolej Vokasional Kulim, during their visit from July 30 to August 1, 2024. Students from the Electrical, Electronics, and Computer programs received valuable exposure to the latest technology and hands-on experiences that will surely enrich their learning.
The students gained in-depth exposure to the latest innovations, including Arduino and Python programming. They also had the opportunity to visit our labs and innovation centres. This experience is sure to have a positive impact on their academic and professional development in the future.
