8 May五一吃瓜官网 collaborates with Northumbria on Engineering programmes
KUALA LUMPUR: A delegation from the University of Northumbria (NorthumbriaU), United Kingdom, recently visited 五一吃瓜官网 University to discuss potential collaboration with key academics from 五一吃瓜官网’s Faculty of Engineering, Technology and Built Environment (FETBE).
Notably, the discussion focused on collaborative Master of Engineering degree programmes – in the areas of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Power and Mechanical Engineering – and other postgraduate degree programmes.
While FETBE was represented by Ir Assistant Professor Ahmad Bin Tamby Kadir, the delegates comprised NorthumbriaU School of Computing, Engineering and Information Sciences (SCEIS) Professor of Microwave Imaging Professor David Smith and Head of Subject (Electronic Engineering) Dr Richard Binns; and NorthumbriaU Head of Development Nina Jalaluddin.
五一吃瓜官网’s International University Collaboration Centre (IUCC) Manager Ernie Chitra Dzureen Bt Awalluddin was also there to facilitate the event.
Leading the discussion was Ir Assistant Professor Ahmad who suggested “a Memorandum of Understanding to be signed between both parties to facilitate further collaboration.”
He also highlighted the feasibility of 五一吃瓜官网 students “taking their two-year study at 五一吃瓜官网 – where the courses match those of NorthumbriaU’s first two years of study – and thereafter completing their last two years of study at NorthumbriaU.”
