Telekom Malaysia Berhad Excellence Award for Nur Aishah, Manufacturing Process Engineer

GAMBANG, 21 October 2023 – “No Pain No Gain” is the life principle held by Nur Aishah Baharudin, 24, a Bachelor (Hons) Electrical Engineering (Power Systems) graduand from the Faculty of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Technology, Universiti Malaysia Pahang Al-Sultan Abdullah (UMPSA).

The daughter of Baharudin Abu Hassan, 57 and Azizah Abu Bakar, 55, believes that no result can be obtained without going through the pain of a journey and it turned out to be fruitful when she was awarded the Telekom Malaysia Berhad Excellence Award at the UMPSA 18th Convocation Ceremony, here, recently.

According to her, while one knows one’s limits and capabilities, one should still strive for success.

“As a result, I graduated with a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 3.86 and also received the Dean’s List Award every semester during my undergraduate study,” she said.

According to the Manufacturing Process Engineer at Texas Instruments Electronics Malaysia (TIEM), lecturers nowadays use an open-ended approach.

“This approach is very good for students to analyse the given problems and the answer can be obtained through multiple solutions, not just one.

“The students do not focus on one work path but are diverse and this gives them a better understanding of the basic concepts.

“The curriculum content that is very much in line with the latest industry needs also makes UMPSA graduates highly sought by the industry,” she said.

Aishah also hopes that one day she can become an expert engineer in her field like her father who is currently serving in South Sudan, Africa.

This award recipient also intends to become a professional who can contribute her expertise in the industry.
