FKP Robotic Booth during Science Week at SK Putrajaya Presint 8(2)

The staffs in the Department of Robotics and Automation, Faculty of Manufacturing Engineering are always happy to fulfill invitations to set-up exhibition booths to promote awareness on science and technology, especially robotic education to the public.

Recently on 28th April 2016, a small delegate from our department had the opportunity to do so at SK Putrajaya Presint 8(2). We were excited and honored to receive the invitation. Our booth got splendid attention from students (Year 1-6) and even teachers.

As the timeframe spent at the school was quite short (10 am to 2 pm), a lot of the students were disappointed when had to leave. So we hope that we will have the opportunity to meet more students if we are invited for future events.







Hope we had succeeded in nurturing ambitions for the children to be robotics engineers in the future!

What is a hooding ceremony?

I have always been intrigued by this event called 'the hooding ceremony' since I began my student life in UiTM about 3 years ago. This term always come to my attention and 'pops out' during the UiTM convocation ceremony. Yesterday I saw a post on the hooding ceremony (again) when my other half was browsing through IPSis UiTM's FB page. IPSis wrote that 52 PhD graduates had successfully completed their studies in UiTM and will receive their scroll in the 81st convocation ceremony.

It is simply a ceremony held for students graduating with a master’s or PhD degree. The placing of the hood signifies the passage from student to 'master's' or ‘PhD'. The hooding ceremony and recognition of students’ accomplishments draw attention to the scholarly and the personal achievements of the candidates for g...
