I thought only post grad students get RA/RO position? not?
I plan to start my post grad studies while still doing my fyp. btw I also planning full time, any diff?
I do have a backup funding but it not much. if can get funding and scholarships would be better.
do ro/ra become part of mmu staff? and we can use the equipments as needed? or do we have pay like to use equipments in other uni?
No RA doesn't need a degree cert for such position. The otherwise go for RO. The difference is your maximum pay rate is higher than RA. In my case as a part-time RA i was paid rm55 a day, maximum working days of 12 days per month. while my full time RO friend of mine had 2.1k per month.

There are some undergrads getting RA but this is only for a small part, which does not lead to a master degree.
Yes, you can start even before registering, unofficially, but there are pros and cons. Do it full time, unless you plan to work outside.
Technically, they are not considered as a faculty member. Yes, can use the equipments, even FYP students can use equipments right?

Yea there're few undergrad getting RA, while MMU had offered me full time and to do master i dont think i'll be doing my postgrad in MMU.

You'll receive a staff ID once you have been appointed as RA/RO, but I didn't ask whether am I eligible for staff parking

. And you'll be able to log into staff's ICEMS and, well I should not say whats in there haha.
