Dr. Rajkumar’s presentation was short and distinct highlighting the benefits of becoming a member of the IMECHE and the road to getting a chartered engineer status and its significance.
The Q&A session was opened to the floor as questions were poured in by fellow students. At the end of the talk, Dr. Tan Chou Yong, the advisor of the club was invited to present a token of appreciation to Dr. Rajkumar. Students and the guests were invited to a light refreshment.
