We Won!

7 students from KOS won a competition named Internship Challenge (National Level 2007) organized by Jobmarket.com.my. The competition was held at One Utama Shopping Complex, Damansara on 13th August 2007. The competition was like an Explorace Game but it wasn’t really a speed game, but thinking and soft-skills game. During the game, students’ skills in many areas were being practically tested including skill to design sushi and how to promote it to market, memorizing skill, visual skill and spatial skill.

The students are:
Amirah Abdul Razak (Leader) – BSBT 3rd year
Noor Artika Hassan – BSBM 3rd year
Nor Hapifah Md Rasdi – BSBM 3rd year
Siti Sarah Yaacob – BSBM 3rd year
Aimi Salwani Abdul Rahman – BSBT 3rd year
Muhammad Zubir Yusof – BSBM 3rd year
Muhammad Zaki bin Ramli – BSBM 3rd year

They were accompanied by Sister Nor Haiza, a lecturer from Biomedical Science Dept during the competition.

They won RM3000, trophies for winning the Champion of the Inter-Varsity Level competition which involved 9 other universities and colleges - UM, UMP, UiTM, UniMas, MIIM, Nilai International College, Kolej Komuniti Grik, MMU and UniMAP. Not only that, they also win the Intra-Varsity Level competition which brought them 3-day 2-night package stay in Awana Resort Malaysia. Prize giving ceremony was held at Shangri La Hotel Kuala Lumpur officiated by a representative from the Ministry of Higher Education.

With the participation and most importantly the winning, the students have got the chance to promote IIUM Kuantan’s name and more specifically KOS’ and SCIENCESS’ names. Besides that, they were also promoting IIUM’s spirit by having a cheer which showed their Islamic face by having a cheer which sounded “I I U M Allahu Akbar!”

This is just another winning flowered by KOS students and of course the kulliyyah and the society are looking forward for more achievements from the students. It’s a proof that KOS and SCIENCESS can do it despite the difficulties we were facing previously due to the move to the new campus.
