UniCITI ALAM Campus, Perlis, 18 Mar 2014
Myreka participated in the UniMAP career carnival held at the UniCITI
ALAM campus on 18 Mar 2014. At the carnival, scores of eager engineering
students converged upon our booth to find out about the career prospects
for R&D engineers.
To spark the students’ interest in design and development, we conducted a
demonstration of a typical design project – a measurement board which analyses
the audio quality of a smartphone. From the demonstration, the students learnt
to appreciate the multi-disciplinary effort that goes into developing technologies
that enrich our lives.
Myreka Gives Career Talk at UTAR Industrial Exposure Day
Kampar, Perak, 9 Mar 2014
Myreka’s senior management team gave a career talk to Computer Engineering
students of the Faculty of Information and Communication Technology, UTAR.
They advised the students on how to prepare for the workforce and gave
tips on making themselves more marketable.
The students were encouraged to talk to their seniors in the working world
to find out the requirements for their dream job, and work towards acquiring
the knowledge and skillsets needed to succeed. They were also reminded that
reading books alone would never make them good engineers – they need to start
developing practical skills and master the tools of their trade while still
in university.
