Hi everyone here.
I can see there is a big fight(ok, I mean debate. ) happening here but please allow me to ask some questions.

One of my friends has applied for the May 2008 intake and he is offered to enrol in Computer Engineering degree course at Kampar campus. From the information I get, the course belongs to FICT (Faculty of Information and Communication Technology) instead of FES (Faculty of Engineering and Science).

May I know why is it so? I thought Computer Engineering is something similiar to Electrical/Electronice Engineering but it focus more on computer systems? My friend feels worry about that because he didn't know the course is about IT instead of Engineering.

He also heard some rumors saying the courses in FICT are some "not so popular" courses, can anyone clarify this? I doubt it is true but I can't confirm it.

And also,

He plans to apply for course change to Electronic Engineering, will there be any minor/major problem? His main concern is about PTPTN loan, time needed for the process and the success rate.)

I hope I can get some replies from UTAR students soon as my friend is like... over-nervous? lol~
Thank you~

Oh, thanks for the info.
So that means course transfer shouldn't be a problem.
How about the rumors of the courses in FICT are non-popular courses, i.e. courses for science students who can't enter FES?
