I thought Liana is the head of Accounting program only?

She isn't. As a matter of fact at this time, she is only the program leader for Accounting program.
Mr Chong (replacing Mr Chang) is the new Head of Accounting and Finance program.

Why I know this? Because I'm the one who went to see him for 2-3 times in matters regarding course selection. He also handles Accounting students (students not from Accounting and Finance).

7 Subjects? Crazy!

About the TT, I already voiced it out on previous posts here but seems like here is not the right place to voice your complaints. Basically we cannot do anything about this but to accept it as the way it is.

Students Affairs, Dean, PCR committees (which I think is a waste of time), bla bla and more.

PTPTN offered for UCSI is only up to $8,000 per semester (long semester basis) meaning 16k a year. 48K is the full loan amount. You might need to top up another 4k? (And 7k - 8k for the first semester)

And be reminded that due to the new course, there have been slight problem with registering it with JPS. The disbursement process will take some time.

Partially. They decided to enforce strict regulations for FOMIT faculty because previously there is one case of leakage of final examination questions and the lecturers have to change all the contents of their papers at the very last minute. They decided to enforce strictly with the regulation then and stick strictly to the consultation hours.

What I recommend you to do is to snap a picture of consultation hours posted at notice board and note down the respective person's email address and email them for appointment. This is the solution for the time being.

Wah, a more private approach
But I normally do it via Facebook.

Very hard to say if UCSI is recognized in your country. You better check if there is a need to recognize engineering degrees back at your home country and see what is the criteria needed to get your degree verified/recgonized before enrolling in UCSI.

Until Sunday only, after that have to come back to Uni

A good and sub-standard lecturer is the main concern here.

With regards to that, racial distribution in UCSI consists of various ethnicity but do take note that racial polarization is high and I cannot deny that other University also has equal level of racial division.

But I don't think language is much of a barrier in the communication process. It just puts you at a little bit of disadvantage.

Is there any bureau of complaints to refer to? Where is Mr Alex when we need him?

The new parking system is outrageous!

Dear Students,



Kindly be informed that effective 14 Feb 2011, we shall no longer be accepting payment of parking charges at the Guard House, upon exit.



All parking charges must be paid at the Auto pay machines. Three (3) Auto pay machines will be installed at the following locations:-

1. South Wing Campus - Block A, Reception area

2. South Wing Campus - Block C, FOMIT area.

3. North Wing campus - Reception area.



The new parking charges are as per the following:



Length of stay

Parking rates

First 3 hours or less

RM 2.00

Subsequence hour

RM 1.00 per hour

Maximum charge per entry

RM 4.00

They will not refund you, just bring forward the credit to next semester.

It's the same but if I am you I'll subscribe third party wireless access (Yes, Digi or Maxis). Their networks are practically slow and useless.

You need to use a proxy.

I'm in Year 2 before leaving UCSI so I can have a fair share of my experience in this level. I've taken a total of 16 subjects and have handled more than a dozen of assignments. I'm not sure whether we're at the same faculty, but I must say that student that speaks good (basic level) does not necessarily equal to well written English. Every time there's an assignment due, I have to become the editor and edit the statements one by one. Also, plagiarism is very high, that is pasting something without credits to the original author. Not sure how they can pass previous assignments with flying colors, but if that is the standard we're talking about, then in no way is it a good English.



Above is a photo taken outside FOMIT office in the morning. So now I've included proof to my post.

What kind of information do you need?

Nope. Stay away and for accounting course better stay with Ktar or Sunway.

Have you checked the overall syllabus that includes Year 2 and Year 3 as well? Is there any elective choice in your syllabus?
I'm not from these courses but generally you start specializing in a field beginning end of Year 2 - Year 3.

So that means if you based on the calculation from Student Handbook 2010, CGPA is only counted on the second and final year right?
This is a serious case of misconduct of professionalism and integrity by the University. I'll need to check the latest issue of the Student Handbook for reference and evidence collection purposes.

Just stay together, the shuttle bus is quite frequent in trips between South and North. If you don't feel like taking bus, a 15 minutes walk is what you need from South to North
