Sebagai sebahagian daripada penilaian Senior Design Project I (SDP1) bagi Semester II Sesi 2024/2025, para pelajar telah mengambil bahagian dalam Sesi Pembentangan dan Demonstrasi yang menjadi medan utama untuk mereka mempersembahkan hasil kemajuan projek tahun akhir masing-masing.

Sesi ini menyumbang sebanyak 40% markah dalam bentuk Progress Presentation and Demonstration, di mana setiap kumpulan membentangkan idea, penyelesaian kejuruteraan serta melakukan demonstrasi awal kepada panel penilai yang terdiri daripada pensyarah berpengalaman.

Melalui platform ini, pelajar bukan sahaja mengasah kemahiran komunikasi teknikal dan keyakinan diri, malah mendapat maklum balas yang membina dalam usaha memperkemas projek menjelang fasa akhir nanti. Langkah awal ini nampak kecil, tetapi impaknya amat besar untuk masa depan seorang jurutera!

Sepanjang Semester II Sesi 2024/2025, para pelajar kursus Senior Design Project I (SDP1) telah menyertai Siri Bengkel Teknikal yang padat dan bermanfaat bagi memperkukuh asas kemahiran teknikal mereka.
Siri bengkel ini merangkumi 5 slot utama yang menyeluruh:

- Programming Using Arduino – Part 1
- Programming Using Arduino – Part 2
- Programming Using ESP32
- PCB Design and Fabrication
- Soldering Technique

Setiap slot dirangka khusus untuk memberi pendedahan hands-on dalam bidang elektronik dan sistem terbina, sekali gus menyediakan pelajar dengan pengetahuan praktikal yang amat diperlukan bagi merealisasikan projek reka bentuk akhir mereka.
Dengan bimbingan tenaga pengajar berpengalaman dan modul yang berstruktur, siri ini bukan sahaja memupuk kemahiran teknikal, malah menyemai semangat inovatif dalam kalangan pelajar kejuruteraan.

An Industry Talk session was successfully held on 23 May 2025 at the Faculty of Electrical and Electronic Engineering Technology (FTKEE), UMPSA Pekan. The session was conducted online and delivered by Ir. Ts. Zarina Johan, a Senior Engineer from Dialog Upstream. The program involved students from the Electrical Power System, Renewable Energy & Technology, and System Installation and Maintenance courses, coordinated by Ts. Dr. Norhafidzah Mohd Saad and Ts. Dr. Mohd Shawal Jadin.

The talk, titled “Navigating Electrical Engineering Challenges in the Energy Sector,” provided students with valuable insights into the diverse challenges within the field of electrical engineering, particularly in the energy sector. Ir. Ts. Zarina shared her experience in managing large-scale energy projects such as solar system installations, including the complexities of offshore solar installations for the oil and gas (O&G) industry.

Key topics highlighted during the session included safety, cost-effectiveness, and compliance with industry standards. She also discussed the critical role of engineers in decision-making, risk management, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams. Furthermore, the speaker emphasized the importance for today’s engineers to master both technical skills and soft skills, especially in this era of energy transition toward renewable sources.

Overall, the session was highly beneficial in raising student awareness about the realities of an engineering career while inspiring and boosting their confidence to step into the industry. The faculty extends its heartfelt appreciation to Ir. Ts. Zarina for her meaningful and impactful sharing.

Fakulti Teknologi Kejuruteraan Elektrik dan Elektronik (FTKEE), Universiti Malaysia Pahang Al-Sultan Abdullah (UMPSA) telah menerima kunjungan lawatan sambil belajar daripada 16 orang pelajar dan seorang pensyarah daripada Program Diploma Teknologi Mekatronik (Sistem Kawalan), Institut Kemahiran MARA Tan Sri Yahaya Ahmad (IKM TSYA), Pekan pada 23 Mei 2023. Lawatan ini dimulakan dengan sesi taklimat pengenalan mengenai UMPSA secara umum dan FTKEE secara khusus, termasuk pengenalan kepada program-program akademik yang ditawarkan. Taklimat tersebut telah disampaikan oleh Profesor Madya Dr. Mohd Herwan Bin Sulaiman selaku wakil Pengurusan Fakulti.

Selesai taklimat, para pelawat telah dibawa melawat ke makmal-makmal utama FTKEE yang berkaitan dengan bidang Mekatronik. Lawatan bermula dengan sesi penerangan dan demonstrasi berkaitan Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) termasuk robot pembersih bawah air (Underwater Cleaning Robot) dan projek-projek ROV pelajar SDP 2.Seterusnya, delegasi dari IKM TSYA dibawa melawat ke beberapa makmal lain seperti Makmal Robotik, Makmal PLC & Applications dan Mini Plant.

Lawatan ini diharap dapat memberikan pendedahan awal kepada pelajar mengenai suasana pembelajaran dan penyelidikan di peringkat universiti serta mencetus minat untuk melanjutkan pengajian ke peringkat yang lebih tinggi di FTKEE, UMPSA. Pihak FTKEE merakamkan setinggi-tinggi penghargaan atas kunjungan ini dan mengalu-alukan jalinan kerjasama yang lebih erat di masa hadapan dengan IKM TSYA.

Dimaklumkan bahawa Fakulti Teknologi Kejuruteraan Elektrik dan Elektronik (FTKEE) akan menerima lawatan daripada Penilai Luar (External Assessor - EA) bagi Program Diploma DRE sebagai sebahagian daripada proses jaminan kualiti akademik. Butiran lawatan adalah seperti berikut:

📍 Lokasi: Bilik Mesyuarat Ibnu Sina, FTKEE
📅 Tarikh: 20 & 21 Mei 2025 (Selasa & Rabu)
👤 Wakil EA: Prof. Ir. Dr. Mohd Khairil Bin Rahmat (Universiti Kuala Lumpur – UniKL)

On May 16, 2025, the Faculty of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Technology (FTKEE), UMPSA, successfully held the Final Year Project Exhibition for students of the Bachelor of Industrial Electronic Automation Technology with Honours (BVI). As part of the course BVI3125: System Integration Design, final-year students were tasked as turnkey providers to carry out the redevelopment and upgrading of the Bottling Manufacturing Station under a real industrial project framework. This station, which had not been in operation for nearly ten years, was revived through student-led efforts involving the restoration and enhancement of its control and monitoring systems.

Among the major milestones achieved was the upgrade of the control system from Omron CJ1M PLC to Siemens S7-1200, as well as the integration of Human Machine Interface (HMI) and SCADA monitoring systems. The project covered more than 10 industrial processes, over 100 input/output devices, and involved configuring 50 SCADA tags—all contributing to a fully functional and modernized mini-plant system. The implementation was carried out using a Project-Based Learning (PBL) approach, where students were organized into groups based on core components such as Process, Electrical, SCADA, PLC, and HMI, simulating real industry roles and collaboration.

The exhibition provided students with a valuable platform to showcase their technical competencies, teamwork, and problem-solving skills in executing an industry-relevant project. The event was graced by the presence of Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Hamzah Bin Ahmad, Dean of FTKEE, who witnessed the remarkable outcomes of the students' hard work and innovation.
