Intern-Share Forum 2010

This year forum titled ‘Graduates Competitiveness in Global Job Market’ is an annual event joint-coordinated by Student Industrial Internship Unit and Student Support Services in support of Technology, Education and Career (TEC 2010) week.

With focus on global job market and career opportunity, the forum will set to unblock UTP student’s mindset to venture into workforce market beyond the Malaysia’s shores, as much as the overall objective is to reduce the industry gap. Even though it is a well-known fact that UTP graduates are the most lethal product in the market produced by the University so far, the management is being resolute in continuous industry-university engagement to enhance graduate’s competitiveness amid gloomy economic outlook.

The University could not ask for better industrial support for the forum as panels are coming from various global industries such as motorsports/automotive, oil and gas and maritime/shipping. Indeed, we are privileged to have our local home-grown F1 engineer on board to share his past experience working at Sauber Engineering headquarters, in Switzerland and latest news on motorsports business. It will be an all PETRONAS affair in this year event and to put icing on the cake, two of the speakers are our UTP’s alumni who are currently being attached at overseas outfit. Significantly, these living examples (if not a role model) will be a strong reason for our students to believe in themselves to scale greater heights.

As the forum is targeting out-going interns and graduating students, we also would like to extend this invitation to all UTP’s academicians and staff to come and add value to this discussion event. And yes, for the early birds – you are entitled to get our door gift too. Below are the event’s details.

Thank you.
