Message from School Dean

Sekalung tahniah diucapkan kepada semua Mahasiswa dan Mahasiswi yang telah terpilih dan berjaya melanjutkan pengajian ke Universiti Malaysia Sabah khususnya kepada Mahasiswa baru Sekolah Perniagaan dan Ekonomi.

Kejayaan memasuki IPTA adalah satu simbolik keupayaan seseorang insan yang akan bergelar Mahasiswa IPTA. Golongan Mahasiswa ini juga adalah mereka yang telah terpilih dari ribuan pemohon yang ingin memasuki gerbang universiti. Sememangnya usaha yang kuat dan tidak kenal putus asa dalam menimba ilmu menjadi pengukur perbezaan antara pemohon yang berjaya dan pemohon yang tidak berjaya.

Oleh yang demikian, para Mahasiswa dan Mahasiswi seharusnya bersyukur dengan peluang yang mereka kecapi sekarang ini, seterusnya menanamkan sikap lebih bersungguh-sungguh lagi dalam diri mereka kerana dunia pendidikan di IPTA adalah sangat mencabar dan memerlukan daya keyakinan yang lebih kuat dan kental. Sukacita saya ingin menyarankan agar Mahasiswa melibatkan diri dalam aktiviti kemahasiswaan baik di dalam mahupun di luar universiti nanti serta menimba seberapa banyak ilmu pengetahuan dan pengalaman yang bermanfaat untuk kebaikan diri masing-masing.

Akhir sekali, selamat maju jaya buat semua Mahasiswa dan Mahasiswi, khususnya Mahasiswa Sekolah Perniagaan dan Ekonomi.

Assalammualaikum and greetings to all,

First and foremost, I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone in School of Education and Social Development (SESD), especially the new batch of students for Semester 1, 2012/2013 Session, all of whom start a new chapter of their lives as the students of University Malaysia Sabah from September 2^th, 2012. Not forgetting the returning students in their second, third and fourth year of study whose semester begins on September 7, 2012.

Effective this year, all public higher learning institutions will be using a new academic calendar whereby the new semester intake will start every September. University Malaysia Sabah also follows suits in the bid to respond to this global need to ensure that it can stay on par with overseas universities. This move will see the benefit of garnering more interests from international students.

As the students in the School of Education and Social Development, University Malaysia Sabah, it is my sincerest wish that you can achieve excellence in every possible aspect. This is crucial since you are the future teachers who will prominently shape the future generation. I am very confident that by helping each other, and cooperating with fellow classmates, these will pave your way towards excellence. Always be reminded of your loved ones’ hopes upon yourselves.

I would also like to welcome back the academic and administrative staff of School of Education and Social Development after a long semester break and holidays. Let us work together towards achieving excellence for the school.
