In contrast with city living, Segamat’s living

costs are relatively low and made affordable

to its residents, especially students.

Strategically located between Kuala Lumpur

and Singapore, Segamat is a fast-developing

agricultural (oil palm and rubber) district that

is also well-known for its savoury durians

among both locals and visitors. A typical mid-

sized town that fuses traditional and modern

cultures, a 45-minute drive from Segamat

will present a host of exciting hiking trails

and swimming sites such as the Air Panas

Waterfall, Bekok Waterfall and the famous

Gunung Ledang.

Campuses

The Pahang Branch boasts a scenic view of

the mountains and is surrounded by greenery.

One can take a 20-minute drive to Camang

Waterfall or a 30-minute leisure drive to Hutan

Lipur Lentang. Other places of interest in the

vicinity include the Bentong Hot Springs, Kuala

Gandah Elephant Sanctuary and Deer Park. The

Pahang Branch is also located between two of

Malaysia’s popular hill resorts; Genting Highlands

and Berjaya-Bukit Tinggi Colmar Tropicale

Resort.

Pahang BranchThe Pahang Branch started its operations with its first batch of students on 4 January 1999. The Pahang Branch, located in Karak, is established specifically to provide opportunity for tertiary education for the community in the East Coast region.

The facilities at the Pahang Branch comprise fully air-conditioned and state-of-the-art academic infrastructure. It houses tutorial rooms, a lecture hall, a library, an internet laboratory, a computer maintenance laboratory and two computer laboratories. The Pahang Branch also has designated wireless internet access areas to encourage students to surf the World Wide Web for research and enhancement of knowledge.

In addition, there is a recreation room where students can play table tennis, carrom, chess and other games. Students who enjoy active sports can also play football, basketball and badminton at nearby sports facilities.

There are also a number of interesting clubs and societies for students to participate in, such as English Language Society, Buddhist Society, Chinese Language Society, First Aid Unit, Student Welfare Committee, Christian Fellowship, Sports Club, Hindu Society and Computer Science Club. These activities would certainly create a more vibrant and exciting campus life for students.

Training and support in the use of CeL are provided through hands-on workshops and collaborations.

Workshops on authoring tools and pedagogical design are conducted throughout the year to equip the academic staff with the necessary skills and knowledge on e-learning. Consultative sessions are held to design online learning materials and activities based on pedagogical principles, and to provide direct hands-on support. An online support site is available to facilitate service requests and to disseminate information on e-learning in the University College.

From CeL, students can access supplementary learning materials and podcasts, browse through relevant web resources, submit assignments, complete online assessments and discuss topics related to their subjects. Through this blend of online and face-to-face learning approach, students will have a better learning experience and acquire critical lifelong learning skills.

To enhance teaching practices, lecture theatres, academic laboratories and tutorial rooms are equipped with ICT equipment and audio visual devices. This will help students to better comprehend the subject matter taught. Wireless Internet access at all student-centred areas allows students to use the Internet for learning at any place and time using their mobile devices.

Student Development & Career Guidance

Introduction

Student Development and Career Guidance (SDCG) is a part of Department of Student Affairs, that offers uniquely designed life programmes that are central to a student’s personal and career growth. One of SDCG specially crafted programme is called “Leadership Excellence Programme”. It takes on an activity base approach that provide important tools and skills for student leaders. This programme comes with number of enticing camps, activities and workshops which helps to mould the students to become a leader with distinctive quality. “Your Leadership DNA’ camp is part of the programme. It gives students the tools necessary to attain true leadership quality. And in tandem with the ever changing environment, a programme called ‘The Road to Excellence’ has been designed to enhance students’ resiliency and learning agility. Together, SDCG, in partnership with the Counselling Services and Professional Life Coaches conduct awareness campaigns, workshops, talks and seminars. Hence, SDCG offers a wide range of services designed to meet the existing students’ needs and will evolve continually according to time. The services provided are in these areas:

• Student Development & Career Resource Centre • Leadership Camp & Skills Training • Purpose & Motivations• Career Explorations

In order for students to gain concrete knowledge and experience on their developmental growth, there is a need of tests tools. Tests tools will be promoted throughout the year. This is the first step to self-exploration, discovering of values, developing strength/potentials, basic understanding of weaknesses and identifying innate skills.

We have qualified student counsellors that are ready to do a free basic assessment test with students. From the free basic tests, students will be recommended to take more in-depth tests to ascertain the results of their

assessments or attend workshops (e.g. Leadership Skills, Living Your Best Life, etc) that will be conducted by licensed trainers or facilitators and a subsequent follow-up programme.

One of the very practical ways to see the developmental stages of a student is ENACTUS TAR-UC. ENACTUS is a very unique platform that students can use to develop themselves by helping the communities that are in need. As a result of these projects, each student can develop their personal excellence and achievement. (Enactus TAR-UC Facebook)

Career Services

Another part of students’ development processes is the career development of students. SDCG works closely with the Career Guidance Society (CGS) to organize Career Development Workshops & Talks throughout the semester to help students to be aware of present day industries’ requirements. The Career development workshops are conducted by counselors, recruitment firms and professional organizations who would guide students in the identification of skills, interests, values and how to make appropriate career decisions with confidence and maximize their employability opportunities. Some of the Career Talks or Workshops that will be conducted by Student Development and Career Guidance throughout the semesters are:

• Company Talks• Living Your Best Life Workship• Personality, Goal Setting & Career Profiling Workshops• Resume Writing & Interviewing Skills Workshops• Career Decision Making• Career Fairs

Graduates will be sought after by design houses/companies in IC design and fabrication, automation, robotics, identification and monitoring, test and measurement, and consumer electronics.

Programme Overview

The skills gained from a degree in sports and exercise science could certainly fire the starting gun for an interesting and rewarding career. Graduates equipped with a good knowledge of the sports

and exercise science enable them look at the science behind health and fitness, as well as an insight into related areas such as nutrition, psychology and management. Demand is growing for sports scientists and performance consultants, as society in general develops a greater awareness of health and fitness issues around work.

This programme provides the students an opportunity to work with industry through their internship and to carry out a real-life research project on building management. All such training will add value to their qualification and later to their employment opportunities.
