PRESIDENT’S FORWARD

Prof. Dato’ Dr. Muhamad Rasat Muhamad

S ince our establishment in 1996, has continuously been securing the recognition as the leading in . We emphasize meticulous effort to keep the University on a clear vision, encourage proactiveness not only in governance, but also in essential extra curricula, which generate R&D activities that are driven to develop knowledgeable personnel as well as to produce the best-equipped graduates who will carry out noble missions.

I would like to take this opportunity to express a million thanks to all MMU academic and non-academic staff who have been serving their passion to translate their contributions to the ever- positive improvement of the University. Besides opening our gate of entrance to the dedicated educators to strengthen the University, we also encourage existing staff to pursue postgraduate activities. We aspire to cultivate more research-based culture in bringing the University to greater height, regionally and globally.

Our sturdy-paced plan now is to bring MMU to greater heights in terms of our academic programmes, research and development (R&D) activities, and innovations. It will be a fulfilled goal to see MMU functioning as an important educational entity in Malaysia, and the world.

Succeeding the tenure of the earlier paradigm, I would like to continue navigating the MMU R&D Roadmap to greater success. MMU‟s Global Footprint will become better-known among the R&D professionals and apprentices across the world of education. With the Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS) that has been opened up to all Government Linked Universities (GLUs) by the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE), it is indeed a golden opportunity for all to produce more research activities and research output in this University.

I hope this annual publication will be a comprehensive guide for those who would like to see our progress. This report is also useful for those who are interested in collaboration and funding the research activities of this university.

Thank you.

Prof. Dato’ Dr. Muhamad Rasat Muhamad President, Multimedia University.

1 Multimedia University - R&D Annual Report 2010 MESSAGE FROM VICE PRESIDENT (R&D)

Prof. Dr. Tou Teck Yong

I n year 2010, the R&D Division implemented several initiatives to provide new opportunities for our academic staff to strengthen their research. For the first time, we also carried out a simple survey on the staff participation in research and computed the R&D Excellence Index which comprised of three components, namely research capability and capacity, research performance and output, and award and recognition.

The first research initiative was the university-funded scheme known as Special Funding for Social Science Research (SFSCR), due to the relatively lower opportunity for external research grant for social science, management, and law. This scheme also promotes collaborative research to bring together experienced and less experienced academic staff. The second initiative was the approval of a special allocation for the implementation of “Inbound/Outbound Research Student Exchange scheme”, which was intended to enable our academic staff to receive as well as to send their own postgraduate students to other universities outside Malaysia for a period of three months.

The survey on the staff participation in research provided an overview of the level of research activity, interest and output, and hence the research culture. In addition to that, the computation of R&D Excellence Index provided a holistic measure of the present state of research environment. These two sets of statistics were correlated to the Malaysian Research Assessment Instrument (MyRA), which was created by MOHE for research assessment of local universities.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank members of the University R&D Committee for their advice and guidance in monthly meetings where we modified and/or formulated new policies and initiatives. I also greatly appreciate the researchers for their kind cooperation as well as to the personnel of the R&D Division for their dedication in organizing various types of workshops, seminars, induction programmes, and providing daily service and support to our researchers.

Thank you.

Prof. Dr. Tou Teck Yong, Vice President for R&D, Multimedia University.

RESEARCH AND COLLABORATIONS

The Research and Collaborations unit, under the R&D Division, was established to support research and development activities in MMU. The role of Research and Collaborations is to moderate the collaboration process between MMU research groups with external organisations, both locally and internationally. For MMU researchers, this unit helps to :

Encourage joint R&D collaborations. Facilitate and assists companies that wish to engage MMU to work on specific research projects. Facilitate the provision of advice and guidance to research projects/products with collaborative partners. Assist in the sourcing of funding opportunities through research collaborations. Promote the inculcation of effective and ethical research culture.

Joint R&D collaborations in MMU typically range from joint venture between universities, MSC Malaysia and non-MSC Malaysia companies, government agencies and government-linked companies (GLCs). Up until December 2010, the cumulative total number of active collaboration partners throughout the university was 87. At present, there are 109 active collaboration projects, which consist of local and foreign university- to-university collaborations, local and foreign MSC Malaysia and non-MSC Malaysia companies, as well as government agencies and government-linked agencies. These consist of collaborations that are on-going and still active in 2010. Table 1 shows a breakdown of these collaborations by sector:

MSC RELATIONS

The collaboration with Multimedia Development Corporation (MDeC) was established through Research Management Centre (RMC). RMC was entrusted to be the liaison office between MMU and MDeC, and to maintain a good rapport with MDeC.

MMU has been very supportive in the MSC Malaysia‟s K-Workers Development Initiatives (KDI), namely MSC Malaysia Undergraduate Skills Programme (USP) and MSC Malaysia Train-the-Trainer Programme (TTT). Below are the brief details of MMU participation in these complimentary trainings :

KDI Key Benefit MMU Participation

Undergraduates will be equipped 22 students in Cyberjaya MSC Malaysia with industry relevant skills campus and 16 students in Undergraduate Skills before graduation Melaka campus completed the Programme (USP) training in year 2010

Academics will be trained with 29 academics in Cyberjaya techinical skills in demand by ICT campus and 29 academics in MSC Malaysia Train-The- industry so that Melaka campus completed the Trainer Programme (TTT) academics will then offer training in year 2010 similar courses to the undergraduates

MMU has also been very active in encouraging students and staff to take part in the MSC Malaysia-IHL Business Plan Competition. The objective of the competition is to inculcate a culture of technopreneurship, and to encourage students and staff to form teams and develop their business ideas that have leverage on both technology and business competencies.

The MMU team, Soft-Inn emerged as First Runner Up under the Business Plan category in the MSC Malaysia-IHL Business Plan Competition 2009/2010. The winning project, Business Solution Suite (HBS2) is an integrated hotel management system in one platform that links a hotel‟s website, room reservation system, point-of-sales system (POS), property management system, accounting and reporting system, and digital room security system.

INSTITUTE FOR POSTGRADUATE STUDIES (IPS) 2010 INITIATIVES

In 2010, the Institute for Postgraduate Studies mainly focused on the improvement of the existing programmes and quality of services offered to the students and the faculties.

1. Standardized Postgraduate (PG) Academic Calendar

IPS introduced the PG academic calendar that commences in June 2010 as the first trimester for all in-campus PG programmes. With this standardized academic calendar, all in-campus programmes will commence and end at the same time. It also helps to synchronize activities involving invoicing of fees, course registration, and examination scheduling.

2. Registration Day

In 2010, IPS allocated additional budget for the registration of new PG students. Newly registered students were given folders, bags and pen bearing the MMU logo, as well as a pen-drive containing the PG Handbook.

The following are the number of students registered for all the 3 intakes in 2010:

February 2010: (70) Local; (197) International April 2010 (PSDC): 25 (Local) June 2010: (66) Local; (130) International October 2010: (47) Local; (155) International

During the registration day of each intake, IPS garnered the help from some of the administrative staff from other faculties and departments.

3. Launched Phase One of IPS Online Portal

The phase one IPS Online Portal (http://ips.mmu.edu.my/ipsportal) was launched in October 2010. This online portal consists of the following applications:

Verification Letter Visa Renewal (International Students only) KWSP Letter (Local Students only) Record of Examiners appointed in the last 12 months (for staff only)

With this portal, students can now submit their request online and supervisor(s) may verified/approved the request online. The application also facilitates IPS administrative staff to check and prepare the necessary letters for students. In addition, faculty members are able to check the list of examiners who were appointed within the past 12 months to avoid appointing the same examiner more than once.

Future development of this portal will include checking the pre-approved examiners list, BOP Module, and Statistic Generation Module.

4. IPS Cyberjaya Info and Counseling Room

The IPS meeting room was renovated and converted into a counselling cum discussion room in December 2010. For easy access to the IPS Online Portal, IPS provided a computer for the use of students at the IPS inquiry counter. For the students.

5. PG Supervision Forum

IPS organized a forum on Effective and Responsible Postgraduate Supervision on the 6th of October 2010 in Cyberjaya campus. The objective of the forum were to :

1) Bring together senior and junior academic staff of MMU to exchange views and share experience on postgraduate supervision

2) Serve as a platform for the awareness of the qualifications for Master and Doctoral degree holders required by the Malaysian Qualifications Framework (MQF)

3) Serve as a platform for the awareness of what constitutes scientific/scholarly misconduct and unethical practices in research and publication

4) Establish a framework for each of the MMU research clusters (engineering, IT, and management) to develop effective and responsible postgraduate supervision, from proposal writing to completion of candidature.

External speakers from the local IPTAs were invited from three different area/background i.e IT/Creative Multimedia, Engineering and Management. They were Prof. Dr. Borhanuddin Mohd. Ali from UPM for Engineering, Prof. Dr. Siti Mariyam Shamsuddin from UTM for IT/Creative Multimedia and Assoc. Prof. Ramayah Thurasamy from USM for Management. A total of 91 academic staff from both Melaka and Cyberjaya campuses attended the forum.

6. Online Progress Monitoring

Online progress monitoring system has been enhanced to allow supervisors to check and view students‟ and previous reports. Generating the outcome and the release of the outcome to students are also done online via this enhanced system. With this system, the speed and efficiency of progress monitoring of the students have been improved. The training for this enhanced system was conducted for the administrators at each faculty and IPS, both in Melaka (9th February 2010) and in Cyberjaya (2nd February 2010).

7. Turnitin Plagiarism Check for Thesis

Plagiarism detector software “turnitin” has been incorporated as part of the workflow for thesis submission (Structure A) since April 2010. Training sessions on the use of the software for selected academic staff representing their respective faculties were conducted in Cyberjaya (5th April 2010) and in Melaka (7th April 2010).

8. New Format for Thesis Examiner Report A new format for thesis examiner report has been designed based on the standard of PhD/Masters‟ as stated in the Malaysia Qualification Framework. The report consists of three parts, namely Part 1: Research Quality, Part 2: Thesis Presentation, and Part 3: Recommendation.

55 Multimedia University - R&D Annual Report 2010 STATISTICS : POSTGRADUATE STUDIES

9. External Consultant Policy

The external consultant policy has been revised and reintroduced to assist all faculties to develop niche research areas. In 2010, one external consultant has been appointed for Faculty of Creative Multimedia.

10. SOPs ISO for Documentation of Structure B & C

MMU will be extending the ISO recognition to include the teaching and learning activities of the University. The postgraduate programmes under Structure B & C will also be included. The first phase is to prepare the SOPs and Work Instructions and Guidelines for all the processes involved in the teaching and learning of the PG programmes. Currently, the SOPs have been prepared and waiting for verification by the Consultant and CQAE after which it will be launched.

11. Internal OBE Audit of PG Programmes

IPS staff attended three OBE Training and Workshop at MQA, Petaling Jaya on 27th April, 30th April and 24th May 2010. These IPS staff were among the members to audit the documents prepared by each faculties for their respective postgraduate programmes. The documents include:

1) The revision of programme outcomes (POs) to cover the 8 MQF domains 2) The revision of learning outcomes(LOs) as per the Bloom‟s Taxonomy 3) The mapping of assessment components to LOs 4) The mapping of LOs to POs to ensure the coverage of all domains, and 5) The measurement of LOs and POs as per the method taught during the internal workshop

The programmes audited were:

1) M.Eng. (Embedded System) on 22nd September 2010 2) M.Comp.Sc. (SESA) and M.Eng. (Tele) on 23rd September 2010 3) MBA and MKM on 27th September 2010
