Salam & Selamat Sejahtera. All praises be to Allah for HIS blessings that UTM AIS has managed to organize PARIS 2016. With the current postgraduate enrolments in UTM AIS, we could make a significant impact on the research-related achievements contributing to UTM’s RU status and graduate-focused University. In line with this, PARIS 2016 is conducted with high commitment from 4 Research Groups(RG) in UTM AIS aiming at providing an effective platform for research students to present their progress while ensuring valuable constructive feedback from the expert members in each RG.

 

The evaluation of the research progress is to ensure sufficient progress has been made by the students according to their year of study which could increase the number of excellent students graduating on time. PARIS 2016 will promisingly increase the quality and timeliness of the students’ research and ensure them successful viva.

 

We would like to thank all the committee members, which consists mainly of Post Graduate Student Society (PGSS) members, RG student members, lecturers, and UTM AIS support staffs who contributed their efforts to making this seminar a wonderful and beneficial experience for everyone. We would also like to thank Research Management Centre and School of Graduate Studies (SPS) for their sponsorship in making the PARIS 2016 a reality. To all students, thank you for your participation and we wish you a rewarding seminar.

 

Thank you.
