Nurturing impactful research for the future
Our inaugural Postgraduate and Early Career Researcher Conference was successfully held on 6 & 7 December 2022 at Kuala Lumpur Teaching Centre. This conference brought together research scholars from multiple disciplines in the arts and sciences where it provided valuable insights from keynote addresses, plenary sessions and guest workshops. The conference also provided an inclusive and supportive platform for sharing of knowledge and exchanging of ideas with the aim at facilitating interdisciplinary collaborations.
