Next on, let's see what IMechE Uniten has coming up and also some activities that we have done recently!
Speak Out For Engineering
Want to win £300? Read on.
Speak Out For Engineering (SOFE) competition is back this year. Stand a chance to win £300 1st prize and a trip overseas & £200 second prize by presenting an idea, on a stage.
Do you see how people like Steve Jobs make their money? They can sell their ideas, innovations, technology or even simple belief, to a group of people who are not in the same field or background. To present an idea effectively, will make all the difference as to how you will succeed.
SOFE is a stage to where you are encouraged to speak to a non technical group of people on your technical ideas as a Mechanical Engineer. A good engineer is a speaking engineer. If you can speak, chances are, you'll go further than others who don't talk as effectively.

SOFE is basically a technical presentation where your audience will be assumed to be of a non-technical background audience. How do you get common John and Janes to understand your complex engineering idea? That is how you will be judged on. The ability to convey ideas and techniques so that everyone can understand and appreciate your ideas.
Qualifying round will be held in Uniten as follows:
Date: 11th November 2011
Time: 2.30pm
Venue: Confirmed participants will be notified via email and phone.
Please grab this opportunity to see yourself going further than what you would normally see yourself going. Take this chance, make a difference. Be different.

Innopreneur Talk by Robest Yong
Want to know how you can take something ordinary and make it extraordinary?
Robest Yong is an inventor who has made a living through creating creative products for the consumer market not only in Malaysia but also around the world. Learn how he changed a dish dryer into a successful business idea.
This talk however was done on the 19th October 2011 at 2-3pm in COIT, Uniten. There will be more talks coming up soon so please don't shy away from these talks as an hour or two at most could change the way you see your future, or at least give an idea of how you can make it better!
NDT Lab Visit
To students who are planning to have an outlook of how Non Destructive Testing is before opting for the elective course for their final year in Mechanical Engineering, and also for everyone else who just simply wants to learn, we will be having a visit to an NDT lab soon.
This visit will expose you to the equipment of an NDT as well as the methods often practiced by NDT specialists to test the integrity of structures.
Most of everyone have already or at least are currently undergoing the Engineering Materials course. You have all learnt about cracks and structural failures. Now see how you can detect these cracks and failures before they even become apparent to the human eye! An NDT is performed everytime a repair or manufacturing work is done to ensure that the structure in fabrication is in perfect condition with no initiation of failures to avoid unwanted incidents in the future. It is as natural to breathing as it is a process in fabrication.
Date and time will be notified soon once we have the confirmed details regarding the visit but please don't miss this chance as this trip is free for all IMechE members!
Thats all for now! There will be more updates and activities soon! But please do visit and 'Like' our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/imeche. uniten or our blogspot at www.imeche-uniten.blogspot. com where you will be able to follow up on our activities and updates much more practically.
