On 27-29 May 2016, my classmates and
I attended the 8th RICS-RISM International Surveying Conference for
Undergraduates – ‘Professionalism in
Emerging Trends’. The conference was being held in University
Technology Malaysia (UTM), Johor for 2 days.
We depart early morning on the first
day and reached UTM around 2p.m. We were then being arranged into groups for
ice breaking sessions. There are total 5 stations of games where we need to
solve before proceed to the next station. Throughout the ice breaking session,
I have made friends with QS students from other universities such as USM, UTAR, UKM and so on.
It was a good experience as all of us mixed around during the gaming session.
At the end of the ice breaking, we took a group photo where photo keeps memories.
That night, all the guests were
invited to attend a welcoming dinner where there are performances from every
university. The performance presented by every university is unique and somehow
delivered different messages to the audiences. Besides supporting my own
universities, I personally like the performance delivered by USM students as
they integrated 3 major ethnics into their performance.
On the second day, we attended the talk by QS professions from the industry. After lunch, there comes
the major aim of the conference where selected students from different
universities will be presenting their thesis paper in front of external panels.
Thus, I have selected a session which is related to my current thesis topic. By
listening and observing the manner of the speakers during the presentation, I
found that they were presenting in a more professional way which is way more
different from the presentation we usually have in class. Apart from that, they
are presenting in a calm and clearer way, where audience can easily understand.
Majority of them were as well able to tackle the questions being asked by the
panels and floors.
During the closing ceremony, one of
the representatives from our university, Chai Khai Yuen has successfully
grabbed a prize for her well thesis presentation. Despite we were all busy with
our midterm test during the period; we were able to enjoy ourselves in this 2 days conference. It was definitely a great experience ever.
