Juruteknologi, juruteknik kini diiktiraf kumpulan profesional

PORT DICKSON 19 Mei - Juruteknologi dan juruteknik kini diiktiraf sebagai sebahagian kumpulan profesional menerusi Akta Teknologi dan Juruteknik 2015, yang diluluskan Parlimen tahun lepas.
Timbalan Menteri Sains, Teknologi dan Inovasi. Datuk Dr. Abu Bakar Mohamad Diah berkata, menerusi akta itu, golongan berkenaan turut memperoleh gelaran sepertimana kumpulan jurutera, arkitek dan juruukur.

Gelaran yang akan diterima kumpulan itu ialah 'TS' untuk juruteknologi manakala 'TC' untuk juruteknik, katanya. "Sebenarnya, akta ini sudah lama ditunggu masyarakat juruteknologi kerana sebelum adanya akta ini, mereka yang bekerja dalam bidang teknologi menganggap mereka kategori kelas kedua kerana tidak mempunyai laluan kerjaya. "Kalau jurutera profesional dipanggil Ir, juruukur Sr dan arkitek Ar. Bila kelulusan yang tidak dapat pengiktirafan daripada institut jurutera kerana silibus mereka tidak menepati untuk menjadi jurutera, mereka terumbang-ambing, tidak tahu hala tuju.

Which University suitable for working adult

ron4 — Thu, 18 Apr 2013 11:36:42 +0800

Hi

Can anybody suggest to me which university locally or overseas suitable for working adults like me to pursue Phd in Comp Science field.

Heard my friend told me before that his plan to pursuing Phd in United States (US), but in virtual mode. No need to meet his supervisor all the years until the time he need to defend his thesis (Viva) at the end of semester. Mean he only need to visit this university one time only.

Is this kind of university recognize by Malaysian government?, or is there any other university in Malaysia or overseas that flexible enough for Phd for full time worker like me.

100 Reasons NOT to Go to Graduate School / Phd

ron4 — Thu, 05 Jul 2012 22:24:56 +0800

What you all opinion about this article, seem that Phd grad are too many produce every year and out numbered the available job.

QUOTE

55. There are too many PhDs.
The reason that there are so few jobs to be found in academe (see Reason 8) is not because there are too few colleges, universities, departments, or programs. If anything, there are too many. The problem is that the number of available jobs is vastly outnumbered by the number of people applying for them. There are simply too many PhDs produced every year for the higher education establishment to absorb them all, despite the absurd degree to which it has absorbed them into jobs that have nothing to do with traditional research and teaching. Today, universities hire doctors of philosophy to be in charge of their dormitories, alumni associations, and police departments.

Colleges benefit from this situation, because there are so many well-credentialed people desperate for teaching positions that they will work for very little money. This would not be such a problem if the world outside of academe had more use for people with PhDs (see Reason 29). The fact that it does not is why there are so many people with doctorates who now find themselves working in part-time temporary teaching positions with no benefits (see Reason 14).

Malaysia files suit against Apple’s iPad

ron4 — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 17:12:04 +0800

QUOTE

FEB 2 – Malaysia has filed a suit against Apple for infringing patents after its recent launch of the iPad, its latest “what-the-hell-is-it” device.

The joint suit by the Federal government and the Penang state administration is related to ideas that were first registered by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak and Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng respectively.

Putrajaya and Komtar are claiming that the iPad, due to its position as a product in between the iPhone and the MacBook, is mimicking the 1 Malaysia and Middle Malaysia concepts, respectively.

This compounds Apple’s already tarnished image as being “copycats” after Nokia had in October filed a suit worth up to RM3.5 billion for patent infringements related to the all-conquering iPhone.

A statement from the Prime Minister’s Office said that, “Malaysia was the first and is unique in trying to put forward this idea of unity, that all you need is one, plain, dull, boring ol’ thing that combines all the best elements of Malaysia into one streamlined slogan.”

ron4 — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 08:55:16 +0800

I plan to further my study for Postgraduate in Msc Computer Science or relevant locally. But i prefer for part time mode because currently worked in this field.

Is there any loan from any institution or bank especially for study loan or any scholarship for part time studies. This is not include personal loan, because maybe specialize for study loan have less interest right?

Please advise me which is the best option for my current situation.

Thank you.

Maybe this is wrong, can somebody help me on this because im totally new in this HT world.
