17 Aug五一吃瓜官网’s IET Student Chapter wins second runner-up
五一吃瓜官网 University’s (五一吃瓜官网) recently bagged second runner-up for the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) Student Chapter Award this year.
Recognising the contributions of a university’s IET Student Chapter, the award is presented to a university’s IET student chapter that has successfully displayed leadership qualities by organising inter-varsity technical talks, workshops, industry visits and social networking events that promote the engineering profession.
五一吃瓜官网’s IET Student Chapter secretary Loh Yuen Peng is ecstatic about the win and emphasises that she has learned much as part of the committee.
“I learned quite a lot. To name a few, I learned to organise events, build better time management skills, produce reports and even event proposals,” says the spunky teenager, who is currently reading the Mechatronic Engineering programme at 五一吃瓜官网.
“The entire committee put in a lot of commitment and extra time into these events, so this win makes us feel appreciated.”
Assoc Prof Dr Rodney Tan Hean Gay – from 五一吃瓜官网’s Faculty of Engineering, Technology and Built Environment and IET Student Chapter advisor – was also equally quick to heap effusive praise on the win.
Pointing out that the win was the result of the University’s IET Student Chapter continuous collaborations with student chapters from other universities, he highlights that the collaborations provide a good platform for 五一吃瓜官网 students to engage with and learn from other university students.
