For “Exhibition Theme”, first prize winner under the University entry level will be awarded RM500 and certificates too. However, from the rule lined out by our hosts, only a maximum of 2 teams consisting of 3 members each can be sent by each University. So grab this chance while it’s hot ! Limited to two teams only !

For “Cheme Future Competition” with the  theme of Green Technology,  participants must for a team consisting of 5 members( A MUST ! ). The competition for this part is divided into two.

The first would be “Product Design” where group participants are given materials prepared by university hosts and are required to build their innovations and explained pros and cons of their designs.

The second part would be a “Case Study Competition” where group participants will be given A DAY for information seeking, discussion and presentation preparation.

3rd IChemE Asia Pacific Sports & NACES 2011

Greetings from IChemE@UTP. 

First and foremost, we from IChemE@UTP would like to wish everyone, although a tiny bit late, a Merry Christmas ! We hoped that you had a safe journey back to your hometowns and had a wonderful time with your family.

It's finally year end of the year 2011 and my, did IChemE@UTP had a wonderful ride this year. 

UTP had recently participated at the 3^rd IChemE Asia Pacific Students Sports and Career Day on 1^st October 2011 at Monash University, Sunway Campus in collaboration with IChemE Malaysia. 

Whilst producing a new generation of well rounded Chemical Engineers, as per laid out by the guidelines by UTP management, it is also imperative that we must not only be good technically and knowledgeable wise, but as well in the form of physical condition. 

And with that, IChemE@UTP decided to send out a total of 50 participants, competing against 8 universities from Malaysia and Singapore.

In the absence of many IChemE@UTP, we were still able to manage quite a feat indeed.

1) Futsal Female - GOLD

2) Bowling - GOLD

3) DoTA - SILVER

4) Netball - SILVER

5) Badminton Men's Singles - SILVER 

No doubt, this is one very satisfactory result we are very proud to show off to. 

Hint: See the word DoTA? *wink wink * 

As for the more recent news lately, which is starting to gain more popularity is the incredible achievements garnered by none other than IChemE@UTP members too !

 The National Chemical Engineering Symposium (NACES) 2011 was hosted at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) from the 16^th to 18^th December 2011, with UTPians up against 13 higher learning institutions including Universiti Sebelas Maret, Indonesia and Curtin University of Technology.

Fortunately, the theme organized by NACES this year goes along with the theme "Sustainable Development", with hopes that current Chemical Engineers are able to tackle and resolve current depletion of resources as well as increment of serious degree of climate condition worldwide.

Participating in a total of three competitions, mainly Technical Plant Design Competition, Technical Essay Writing Competition and Technical Case Study Competition, with a total of 12 participants from UTP, we were yet able to achieve another astounding feat with the results of : 

Technical Plant Design Competition - Champion , RM1500 Cash Prize

Syed Osama Bukhari

Hon Lian Hung

Mohamad Syazwan bin Ahmad Zubir

Dhanaraj a/l Turunawarasu

Technical Case Study (Representative from each university) - 

Champion (Ng Tze Yi) , RM1000 Cash Prize

First Runner Up (Chong Kar Yeen), RM800 Cash Prize

2nd Runner Up (Yong Jenn) , RM600 Cash Prize

Individual Prizes , Cash Prize RM150 -

Yong Jenn 

Lok Chen Chuang  

Indeed, this a great way to end year 2011 with a big bang with astonishing results !

Looking back, we had achieved marvelous results with our ever growing society, ICheme@UTP in UTP.

Let's continue this gallant run in the year 2012 where UTP will be hosting a brand new generation of  ChExposium 2012, a monstrous event which will definitely knock your socks off !

Look forward to it !

Cheers  ~

CSR 2011 – Buka Puasa With The Orphans

First of all, a big round of applause to those who had contributed to make this year’s CSR a success~~!!

*clap clap*

For this year’s CSR, a trip to an orphanage namely, Pusat Jagaan Anak-Anak  Yatim & Miskin Nurul Iman, was carried out.

See those packets of rice? (IChemE members look good carrying them )

Yeap. . . We at IChemE@UTP had donated some rice for them as a sign of charity. And that’s just a start of the contribution we’re gonna give to the orphans.

A series of game activites were carried out non other than our cute member, Alvin Chan~

 

One of the games conducted was a simple game of memory and also a tiny bit of drawing skills.

Try drawing that!

The orphans were required to memorize the weird creatures given (=.=||) and draw them.

 

Not only that, they also have to relay the same exact thing they remembered to the person behind them. Tough?

It is!

Then there was some chit chatting and ice-breaking to do as well.

It’s amazing how all kind of people from walks of life are able to enjoy each other’s company like the one’s below.

Kage Bushin no Jutsu!

* silence *

Ming Yih: * phail. . . . . . *

OK. . . Maybe that wasn’t a good example.

BUT!

At least the orphans were happy right?

It’s nice to see them smile and aren’t they just so darn cute they you could just squeeze their cheeks?

My my ~~ What do we have here?

And it’s not what you think it is.

It’s a game where everyone hold hands and closes their eyes. When a coin is flipped, if it’s head, a signal needs to be passed to the next person by grabbing their hand tight until the last person, the last person however, must quickly grab the tennis ball in front of them after received the signal, and the will get 1 mark. However, if it’s tail, no signal was passed, and ball was grabbed, you lost!

After a whole afternoon of laughter, night finally falls and it’s time to break fast for the Muslims.

Everyone enjoyed the delicious meal, no doubt.

Last but not least, we would like to thank everyone for participating in this small yet meaningful event.

          

Without everyone’s effort, this CSR couldn’t be much happier

=)

GOOD LUCK FOR YOUR FINALS PEEPS =D
