Career Connect hosted visits from three different companies to the Cyberjaya campus, recently. Prof. Dr. Wong Eng Kiong, Vice President of Student Experience and Entrepreneurship Development (SEED) welcomed Mr. Christian Daugbjerg, Vice President, IT- Asia Pacific from Demant Malaysia Sdn Bhd, and two representatives from InvestKL namely Mr. Aidil Zeffri Azman, Senior Manager, Investor Relations- Europe and Ms. Gyatri Jaydas, Manager of Strategic Communications and Partnerships on 25th August 2022.
During the visit, the guests had a discussion with the representatives from the Faculty of Computing and Informatics (FCI) and Faculty of Engineering (FOE), which was chaired by Mr. Albert Quekm Deputy Director of Career Connect to explore more collaborative efforts that could be achieved especially for the i-cadet programme. Also attending the discussion were Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ooi Chee Pun, Dean of FOE; Ts. Dr. Ng Kok Why, Deputy Dean of FCI, and Prof. Ts. Dr. Ting Choo Yea from FCI.
In addition, Career Connect took a proactive approach to engaging FINEXUS Group, where the team visited their newly set up facility in Cyberjaya on 30th August 2022. This visit served as the first handshake to initiate the collaboration between both parties through a discussion with Ms. Vivian Ng Siew Yin, Manager of CEO Management Office, and her talent acquisition team, while Career Connect was represented by Mr. Albert Quek and Mr. Faizal Jewari. It is hoped that more collaboration initiatives could be implemented by industry partners and the university for industrial exposure as well as job opportunities for MMU students. Indeed, industry involvement plays a vital role in nurturing industry-ready graduates for the future workforce.
