Student Testimonials

Studying as a master student in CONNECT has been an enriching and transformative experience for me. Here, I not only had the chance to develop my hard skills but also on other soft skills such as communication skills and English speaking. Professor Dr. Ong Wee Jun always inspired me to go above and beyond my capabilities. I would highly recommend CONNECT to anyone seeking postgraduate study in a supportive community.

As a proud Chemical Engineering (CME) alumnus of Xiamen University Malaysia (XMUM), I can confidently attest to the invaluable knowledge and skills I acquired during my time at the School of Energy and Chemical Engineering (SECE). The rigorous curriculum equipped me with a solid foundation in chemical processes, unit operations, and problem-solving techniques. Today, in my workplace, I continuously apply these fundamentals to tackle real-world challenges effectively. XMUM’s CME program truly prepares its students for success in the dynamic field of chemical engineering.

The capstone project for my chemical engineering degree involved designing a chemical plant for sustainable aviation fuel production. This project proved immensely valuable as it put our knowledge to the test and allowed us to apply everything we've learned throughout our studies in the chemical engineering department. A pivotal factor in our success was the guidance and insightful advice provided by our supervisor, Dr. Kua, who played a significant role in keeping us on track and ensuring the successful completion of our tasks.
