About Us
University students are the one who will shape the future of a country.
A competitive, creative and talented group of students are needed to fulfill the
national education policy. Most of the students however thought that by striving
in academics are enough to survive in the real working environment. However,
other than excelling in academics, students should strengthen their soft skills in
order to have a higher level of confidence.
In accordance to shaping a generation that is intellectual and globally
competitive, “IPTS STUDENT LEADER SUMMIT” program is initiated by the Students
Representative Council 2008/2009 session of Universiti Tenaga Nasional. This
program will be an eye opener to show people in general where UNITEN students
especially are capable of organizing an international level program.
In addition, this summit will strengthen the bond between SRC members of
IPTS in Malaysia. During the two-days summit, several issues will be discussed to
be brought forward to MPPK 2 which will be chaired by Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin,
Deputy Prime Minister cum Education Minister of Malaysia. Other than that, the
objective of UNITEN SRC is to form an IPTS caucus so that it would be one strong
union that would create a collaboration from multiple aspect which is good for
the university and also generates professional leaders for the future.
Thus, the Student Representative Council session 2008/2009 of Universiti
Tenaga Nasional, are proud to come forward as the first university to held hands
with other IPTS SRC in Malaysia to form a caucus as a voice of all the IPTS students
and to be a medium for all IPTS.
