PSM's technical paper submission

We are now in the last week of lecture for this semester. As for PSM tasks students were struggling to get their technical paper done. They were supposed to submit the paper last Wednesday. But the extension were given because many of them get involved in Hydrography Seminar held last week at UTM KL.

This year the format of PSM technical paper was changed. For the first time the technical paper need to be written following Jurnal Teknologi format. So they have to submit 'journal' paper within 8-13 pages. As 4 pm today about 70% of the students have submitted their work.
