Engineering Constituency : 1st Report Semester 2 2009/2010

WIRELESS ACCESSIBILTY AT MAHALLAH

The installation of cable/hubs for the wireless internet at mahallah is still in progress. Some of the mahallah already got the access to the wireless internet but some are not. Hopefully, all students can be patience while waiting for the installation to be completed. Please use the internet wisely once it has been installed.

Since 5 years ago, SRC has fight for getting the wireless at our campus. However, we cannot get it in the glimpse of eye. The process of installing the wireless began at Gombak campus, followed by Kuantan campus and lastly the matriculation campus. Now, the installation process at all mahallah is still in progress. Hence, your patience, understanding and support are highly appreciated.

STANDARDIZATION OF THE FOOD PRICE

Up until now, FFSD is working on to replace the food price poster at all café. All the details information regarding the food prices can be viewed through the FFSD website.

Since last year, engineering constituency has travel back and forth to FFSD to ensure that the food price in all mahallah and kulliyyah is standardized. Pamphlets regarding the food prices has been printed out and distributed. However, only several food prices are stated in the pamphlet.

As a student, we must know our right regarding the food prices. Any enquiries concerning the details of the food prices, or want to comment about the services and cleanliness of the café, please visit FFSD website and forward your complaints or comments to http://www.iiu.edu.my/ffsu.

UPGRADING THE STUDY ROOM

The budget for upgrading the study room has been approved and received from the Deputy Dean Student Affairs on 26th April 2010. Insya-Allah, the study room will be ready to be used in this coming short semester. Thus, the study room for sisters is at E1-3-13 and E1-3-15 for brothers.

PROMOTING IEM TO ENGINEERING STUDENTS

A meeting was held on 3rd March 2010 with Dr. Zuraida Ahmad, Deputy Dean of Student Affairs regarding this matter. Dr. Zuraida encouraged the students to join IEM (undergraduate). In addition, the fee is only RM20 compared to RM50 after graduating. However, if we are not registered now, we must pay the fee around RM200.


MORE PARKING SPACES

The parking space at Kulliyyah of Engineering is limited; therefore we discussed this issue with Dr. Zuraida for her attention. The issue raised up by Dr. Zuraida is about the environmental and landscape of IIUM. However, we will try our best to settle the problem to help the students.


KOE TUTOR/GRADER ALLOWANCES PAYMENT

We had received a report from students come graders, demonstrators and tutors in KOE regarding the delayed of allowance payment for the months of December 2009, January and February 2010. Further actions have been taken and a meeting was held on 8th April 2010 with Sis. Azura, Finance Representative from office of the Dean, KOE and she said that they have just submitted all the details to the Finance Division IIUM on 8th April 2010. Finance Division KOE will try their best to expedite the allowances payment so that it can be made by 15th to 17th of April 2010. In addition, a letter regarding this matter had been sent to Madam Norhana Mohd Yunos, Director of Finance Division IIUM and carbon copy to Dato' Ahmad Zailan Shaari, Executive Director Finance Division IIUM and Dr. Amir Akramin Shafie, Dean of KOE. Director of Finance Division IIUM had replied the letter and informed that their Assistant Accountant at our Kulliyyah who was handling the payment had resigned without prior notice in December 2009. Alhamdullillah, a new Assistant Accountant has been recruited in March this year and the allowances already been paid on 15th April 2010. Your understanding is highly appreciated.
