covering events & happenings from Apr - Jun 2014 20 Minister of Youth & Sports officiates opening of Sector Focused Career Fair Nilai U 2014 Culinary Arts graduate learns from celebrity chef Theatre & Acting Class of 2014 stage play Follow us on: From The Vice-Chancellor’s Desk Contents For many parents, the primary reason behind their sending the children to private higher education institutions is to ensure they can secure a rewarding and lucrative career. We do everything in our power to ensure this happens. From the delivery of quality diploma, degree and post-graduate programmes to the availability of courses designed to equip our students with the relevant soft skills, everything is geared towards producing academically competent and socially confident young adults. To add to these efforts we are proud to be privileged in being involved in the Sector Focused Career Fair for 2014. Co-organised by Talent Corporation Malaysia Berhad and Nilai University’s Students’ Representative Council, this event brought over 30 of the top employers in Malaysia to our very own President Hall. The event not only allowed students (from Nilai University as well as the surrounding institutions) to network with potential employers but also learn first-hand what it is that these blue chip firms are looking for. I certainly hope many students obtained many valuable lessons from resumé writing to interview techniques and that these will help them secure their dream job. Speaking of which, this issue features two alumni who have gone on to secure their dream jobs almost immediately after graduation. One is a graduate from the BBA (Hons) in Management who is now working with one of the top IT companies in the world while the other is a Diploma in Culinary Arts graduate who is working under the tutelage of famed TV chef Emmanuel Stroobant south of the Causeway. These alumni are testament to Nilai U’s Blueprint for Success and ‘Enrichment for Life’ philosophy. I would like to invite all school leavers and their parents to visit our beautiful campus to see for themselves what is on offer. I am confident you will not be disappointed.

Many congratulations to all who made this event such a resounding success. Walking among the throng of students, it was immediately palpable the eagerness of the students to join the workforce. I would like to remind all Nilai U students that there are a number of internship and even full-time positions available on campus.

EXPLORER EXPLORER Apr - Jun 2014 Enrichment For Life Authoring Your Own Destiny Nilai U graduate launches self-published leadership book at SMK Sultan Abdul Samad. "I was a very shy and reserved guy when I first arrived at Nilai University (Nilai U). I read a lot of self-development books which helped me come out of my shell," admits Nelson David Bassey, who recently graduated from the Diploma in Mechanical Engineering programme with a Distinction. "It was then that I thought I would try to write a similar book in simple-to-understand English to help benefit other students." David (as he is known to his friends) then approached the Dean of the Faculty of Engineering, Science and Technology, Prof. Dr.R.Logeswaran N.Rajasvaran, to help with this ambitious project. "When he approached me, he had already started on the first draft and I fully encouraged him as this was a very worthwhile effort. I know PhD holders who have not even thought of writing a book and here was a diploma holder who was keen to do so," recalls Prof Loges, the co-author. Fast forward two-and-a-half years, the 21-year old Nigerian is the proud author of “The New Generation of Leadership: Transforming Ordinary Young People into Outstanding and Growing Leaders“ and he was invited to launch his book at SMK Sultan Abdul Samad, Petaling Jaya by the secondary school's principal, Sarawasthy Narayanasamy. The principal says she hand-picked the students to attend the launch which comprised senior prefects, presidents of clubs and societies and members of the school debating team. Having read the book, Saraswathy says she found the contents to be extremely helpful and its easy-to-digest English language allowed for secondary school students to comprehend the lessons contained within. She also said that as a young author, David is a great role model to her young students and she encouraged her charges to purchase a copy. (L-R) David Oh (mentor to author), Prof. Dr.R.Logeswaran N.Rajasvaran (Nilai U Dean of the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Technology), Nelson David Bassey (author of New Generation of Leadership), Prof. Datuk Dr. Megat Burhainuddin B. Megat Abdul Rahman (Nilai U Vice-Chancellor), Saraswathy Naranasamy (Principal of SMK Sultan Abdul Samad) and Dr C.K. Lee (US Fulbrighter Accelerated Training International and mentor to author) and his daughter, Jane. Echoing their principal's sentiments, the assembled students bombarded David with their questions and also highlighted some of the lessons they garnered from reading the book. "A leader must learn to deal with criticism and also learn how to deal with pressure. Leaders not only have a great responsibility to achieve their own dreams but also lead their team to success," says Emmanuel Yogan Lourdes, a fifth former and debating team member at SMK Sultan Abdul Samad. His cohort Ethan Gomes also said that "leaders had to first seek to understand before looking to be understood. That is the true sign of leadership." David also conducted a workshop and a reading as part of the launch. Also present at the launch were Professor Datuk Dr. Megat Burhainuddin (Nilai U Vice-Chancellor), Dr CK Lee (US Fullbrighter, Accelerated Training International), and David Oh. The latter two having been mentors to David in writing the book. There was also a taped video message from the US from self-development author Sarah Michel, who is also the third author of the book, congratulating David on his feat. Beyond Books Nilai U's motto is 'Enrichment for Life' and this means that administrators take a holistic approach to studies. Every effort is taken to allow students to broaden their horizons beyond the confines of the classroom. David's efforts to get himself published is one such example and Nilai U is proud to have a published author as its alumni.

EXPLORER EXPLORER Apr - Jun 2014 EXPLORER 5. Apr - Jun 2014 Organised by Cover Story Helping Students Land the Right Job Minister of Youth and Sports officiates opening of Sector Focused Career Fair at Nilai University. Co-organised by Beyond Books This event was planned & pitched to Talent Corp Malaysia by the Students’ Representative Council of Nilai University. Pix by Tommy Lee Yan Shan ( BSc (Hons) in Computer Science ) Students’ Representative Council President Jude Leonard John Leonard congratulated his peers who helped set up the Sector Focused Career Fair Nilai U 2014.

Khairy Jamaluddin Abu Bakar (Minister of Youth and Sports) signs a mock passport to signal the opening of the Sector Focused Career Fair Nilai U 2014. “Nothing beats having students meet prospective employers face-to-face,” declared Khairy Jamaluddin Abu Bakar, Minister of Youth and Sports, when officiating the opening of the Sector Focused Career Fair Nilai University 2014. “Bringing the right sort of companies into campuses is absolutely the right way to approach recruitment.” The career fair is co-organised by Nilai University’s Students’ Representative Council (SRC) and Talent Corporation Malaysia Berhad (TalentCorp). Held from 17-18 June at Nilai University’s President Hall, the event is designed to raise awareness among Malaysian students on exciting career opportunities as well as provide guidance on relevant areas such as CV writing and interview techniques. The career fair focuses on the areas of hospitality, business, engineering and science and is supported by over 30 participating companies, including Celcom Axiata, Malaysian Airlines System Bhd, RHB Banking Group, KFC (Peninsular Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, and Mah Sing Group. “One of TalentCorp’s missions is to ensure local students have a clear and seamless pathway from education to employment,” said Khairy. “That is why this Sector Focused Career Fair is so important because one of 6. EXPLORER Apr - Jun 2014 the problems we keep hearing over the last few years is ‘graduate unemployment’. This completely perplexes Johan (Mahmood – TalentCorp CEO) and myself who have been involved in career fairs, as there are a lot of jobs going round.” Citing the Economic Transformation Programme whereby the government will create in excess of 3 million jobs over the next five years, Khairy believes there is an asymmetry of information in the marketplace where students do not have enough information on the jobs available, career pathways and what is required to impress prospective employers. “Graduates need to build relevant soft skills to thrive in today’s working envrionment. This will help them gain employment that best fit their qualifications, and carve out a successful career of their choosing,” he advised. Khairy commended the SRC on a fine job in organising the event, reminding the audience that the SRC had to pitch to TalentCorp why their university was the right venue to host the Sector Focused Career Fair.He also congratulated Nilai University on being innovative citing the Aircraft Maintenance Engineering programmes and the on campus facilities which include a hangar with two planes as an example of an education institution rising to meet the demands of the marketplace. The Minister of Youth and Sports also made special mention of the fact that Nilai University had been named (by the Ministry of Education) as a ‘Pusat Sukan Tumpuan Khas’ for the sport of fencing. He hoped that by having the necessary facilities will foster greater interest in this niche sport and it would also allow national atheletes to continue their vigourous training while continuing their studies (Nilai University currently has two national fencers pursuing higher qualifications). “When we create those 3 million jobs under the Economic Transformation Programme, we need to make sure that these jobs are filled by the right people. That they are filled by Malaysians who have the right experience, the right skills and the right education,” Khairy concluded, urging students to make the most of the opportunities available at this Sector Focused Career Fair. Nilai University strongly believes in facilitating student initiatives such as this Sector Focused Career Fair which allowed the SRC to gain valuable hands-on experience in organising such an event. EXPLORER 7. EXPLORER Apr - Jun 2014 University Courses Beyond Books Stage Lessons Students can choose from various University Courses, such as this Introduction to Theatre & Acting. Nilai U students stage play as end of term project for the Theatre and Acting module. “There are many lessons which students gain from the Theatre and Acting module. But the most important ones are teamwork, communication, and unleashing the power of one’s imagination,” says Mano Maniam who conducts the Theatre and Acting module at Nilai University (Nilai U). The noted thespian admits that students were a bit wary when the module was introduced four years ago but has grown in popularity immensely. “They probably heard that there were no books involved!” he laughs. The omission of text books notwithstanding, the enthusiasm and exuberance displayed by students who sign up for the Theatre and Acting module is a clear sign that they have thoroughly enjoyed their classes and are eager to absorb lessons from the veteran actor. Mano notes that there has been a sizeable contingent of international students who sign up for his classes. “This is probably because the module represents a great way for them to improve their language and public speaking skills. It is also a fantastic way to boost one’s self-confidence. After having performed on stage for an audience, everything else seems easy,” says Mano. Students in this Theatre and Acting module are graded on the end-of-term staging of a play, which they must produce, direct and script themselves. “It is a completely original endeavour which really allow students to fully explore their imaginations. But this is not a one-man show, thus making effective communication and teamwork essential if the production is to work,” he counsels. This year’s production saw 30 students divided into four groups to produce four vignettes with the theme of ‘Light and Dark’. Mano says apart from instruction that each play had to be about 20 minutes and some guidance on scripting, the students were pretty much left to their own devices to come up with a play that would vow the audience. Students in Nilai U’s Theatre and Acting module had to produce, direct and script their own end-of-term play. years later. ‘Christina’s Secret’ delves on how two brothers fall for a schizophrenic girl and how they are almost torn apart as a result. Appropriately, as the thunder and the rain lashed outside the President Hall where the play was being staged, the last piece was called ‘Light in the Haunted House’ which saw how a young neglected child befriends a puppet which comes to life with drastic consequences. Mano had in the past asserted that the success of a play was not determined by whether the lines were delivered perfectly or if the stage looked professionally set up but rather whether the audience had a good time. Judging by the loud guffaws of the near-capacity crowd and the even louder applause, the students seem to have pulled off an amazing feat. Nilai U administrators take a holistic approach to education and provides students with various opportunities to broaden their horizons. Besides the Theatre and Acting module, students can also opt for modules such as Dale Carnegie’s Skills for Success, Mizuno Golf School and Outward Bound’s Skills for Survival. Students who successfully complete these modules will receive enhanced certification giving them an added cutting edge when they enter the working world as bold, confident and sociable young adults. The first play was called ‘Blind Love’ and details the complexities of teenage love and infatuation. This was followed by ‘Biggest Mistake’ which was a cautionary tale about a pregnancy out of wedlock which leads to tragic consequences 25 Students celebrate with their mentor Mano Maniam (last row, 2nd from left) the successful staging of their end-of-term play. 8. EXPLORER EXPLORER Apr - Jun 2014 Alumni Living the Dream Young Business graduate is excited to be working in one of the giants of the computing industry. “Set goals, know your passion and be determined to strive all out to achieve your dreams. Always have the right attitude and stay positive!” declares Yee Yin Sinn who is currently employed as a Business Controls Professionals at IBM Malaysia Sdn Bhd. A bright and vivacious young lady, Yin Sinn has been striving to make her mark in the corporate world since enrolling in Nilai University (Nilai U) in the BBA (Hons) in Management programme in 2010. The 21-year-old admits to being seduced by images of successful corporate high-flyers in films and books when she was a teenager and says she was incredibly excited about joining an organisation with over a hundred years history. “I am very proud to be hired by one of the top corporations in the world. It would not have been possible without the help from my Nilai U lecturers who shared their own experiences of the corporate sector with students. Their help and advice certainly helped me prepare for life in the corporate world,” she affirms. Nilai U’s Faculty of Business offers a host of diploma and degree options, including BBAs in the fields of Finance, Human Resource Management, International Business, Marketing, Management and a general BBA alongside the ever popular Accounting and Finance degree and the Diploma in Business Administration, there are also post-graduate options to choose from. Yin Sinn opted for the BBA (Hons) in Management programme as she felt that this was where her forte lay, pointing out her organisational and communication skills as among her strong points. “I was President of the DIY Club and Treasurer of the Students’ Representative Council while at Nilai U. These positions taught me many valuable lessons in responsibility as well as how best to communicate with my peers,” she says. Yin Sinn is at pains to stress the importance of such soft skills as she says she has to deal and communicate with colleagues from all over the world. “Cultural literacy is very important as you outline plans with peers from offices in various parts of the globe. Being able to communicate effectively is key in these situations,” states the Malacca-born lass. It is thus no surprise that Yin Sinn advices all school leavers who want to follow in her footsteps to brush up on their soft skills. “Nilai U offers plenty of opportunities to do so. Besides the many clubs and associations which help students become more confident with their own organisational abilities, there are also a number of ‘university courses’ designed to specifically improve communication skills,” she recommends. Nilai U undergraduates are required to do four credits in subjects unrelated to their core fields. The administrators have gone to great lengths to offer courses that will give graduates an added cutting edge in the employment market. These include Dale Carnegie Skills for Success, Outward Bound Survival Skills and a Theatre and Acting module conducted by veteran thespian, Mano Maniam. These are just some of the courses available to students who will receive certification upon successful completion. Yin Sinn is keen to point out that these soft skills along with a quality degree are what attract potential employers. She singles out ‘determination’, ‘passion’ and ‘attitude’ as the essential characteristics that multinational organisations look for in graduates. “I believe Nilai U offers the right combination of academic pursuit along with social and extra-curricular activities that help mould students into confident young adults. It is a winning combination!” she declares. Yee Yin Sinn (BBA (Hons) in Management) believes that ‘determination’, ‘passion’ and ‘attitude’ are the essential characteristics that multinational organisations look for in graduates.

Alumni Making the Grade Nilai U Culinary Arts graduate is excited to be working with a celebrity chef. “A mere ‘interest’ in cooking is not good enough a reason to enter a culinary arts programme. You need to have ‘passion’ and it better be a burning and fiery one at that,” exclaims Nicholas Jason Cox, who is currently working at Saint Pierre Relais & Chateaux in Sentosa Cove, Singapore. He is extremely excited to be honing his craft in a fine-dining French restaurant under the guidance of celebrity chef, Emmanuel Stroobant. (The Belgian chef is best known for the ‘Chef in Black’ series on the Asian Food Channel.) “The reason I say that potential students need to have a burning desire is because this is a very tough profession and students will need to have a burning desire to succeed,” he cautions. “You will be subjected to long hours, plenty of scolding from chefs and even practical jokes when you are the junior member of a kitchen!” He points to the time when he was made to iron every single piece of linen on his first day of work, only to be told that they actually had to be folded after he finished the chore. “It was a prank by the assistant manager but I took it in the right spirit. Everyone has to go through this whilst working in a kitchen,” smiles Nicholas. “Working in a professional kitchen is very different from training in culinary school kitchens. You will very likely cut, burn, shred, and possibly even slice a digit or two,” he states matter-of-factly. If you still love what you do after that, then culinary arts is definitely the programme for you!” Nicholas’s culinary journey began when he helped his mother prepare the family meals when he was a wee lad growing up in Miri, Sarawak. He then started watching lots of cooking programmes, including Chef in Black, and that was when he realised he wanted to further his studies in this field. “Like I said, ‘interest’ alone is not enough; professional kitchens are no place for shrinking violets. But I discovered that I liked the hustle and bustle of a working kitchen and that I really love the whole process of preparing food in a restaurant, which is very different from home cooking,” he explains. “For instance, in a restaurant, every plate has to be exactly the same. We also need to be able to work perfectly in a team to ensure the food service runs smoothly.” He says he applied to Saint Pierre Relais & Chateaux because he wanted to learn from Stroobant. Nicholas must have impressed the Chef in Black as he has been retained after completing his internship. He feels very privileged to be able to learn from a famous chef and says Stroobant has no airs about him. “He is very much like on TV friendly, approachable and likeable!” The 21-year-old says that he had very positive experiences at Nilai U and is full of praise for the lecturers in the Faculty of Hospitality and Tourism. “Many of them have become friends. I always drop by to say ‘hi’ when I am in town,” he smiles. “In fact, the relationship among students and teachers in the faculty is very good as the lecturers are always available to guide and counsel students, whether it is academic, professional or personal.” He goes as far as to say that the quality and dedication of the lecturers is the one reason students should consider joining Nilai U. “They really make a difference.” Though he is currently focussed on learning as much as he can from the Chef in Black, Nicholas says he would like to do a degree later on. This is to allow him to have something to fall back on should he no longer able to cut it in the physically demanding environment of a professional kitchen. Inspired by his own lecturers, he hopes to someday pass on his knowledge to a new generation of budding chefs. “But I will only want to teach those who have a burning desire to be great chefs!” he adds with a twinkle in his eye. Graduates from Nilai U’s Faculty of Hospitality and Tourism will also receive enhanced certification from the Malaysian Food and Beverage Executives Association, giving them an added competitive edge.
