Hey everyone,

I was there at the EduCamp for the interviews.  It was alright.  But during the briefings, it was said that some students had successfully gained overseas internships with companies like Shell, Schlumberger, etc all around the world. 

But it wasn't clearly explained, like, what type of students had gone overseas to intern?  Petroleum Geoscience? Chemical Engineering?  Also, how many had gone on average?

Erm, I don't need any statistics..  But from your experience, what have you seen thus far? 

Thank you.  biggrin.gif

Curtin in Sarawak offers PE, quite reputable. Not UTP but it'll do. Besides that there's only UCSI which is the shittiest of the 4 unis that offer PE. (UTP>UTM>Curtin>UCSI)

Btw FOR NOW, there's no OQ (other qualification i.e. A levels, STPM, etc) intake due to lack of facilities and hostels to accommodate as many students as we currently take in, but that may change in the future.

I myself am from matrics, not UTP foundation. I think their refusal to take any more OQs is stupid; UTP has too much faith in their own foundation products lol.

It's hard to get, and you'll have to take the initiative in applying to all these places yourself tbh. And if you're not a Petronas scholar (if you were they'll pay for your accommodation and living expenses there if the company you're working for won't), you'll find it even more challenging cos you'll have to think about budget constraints too.

aircond or air ionizer? the latter can be brought. fridge can't but i think a mini bar can. there is a certain voltage/power value that cannot be brought in (I'm a poor guy so I never have all these stuffs anyway, so i don't care lol)

yes very random. I've been in UTP for 4 years and have yet to kena once. but some of my friends kena like 2~3 times already.
