Industrial Seminar by Ir. Juraimi Masood
Date : 17 April 2018
Time : 2.15 - 4.30 pm
Venue : L50 DK1
The speaker, Ir. Juraimi Masood graduated from electrical engineering background. He shared his experience from a trainer, to an engineer and finally a general manager in PTP. He talked about his first heavy engineering project which is the KLCC Air Conditional Plant project when he was working at KTA Tenaga. Design, project plan, project cost, construction, quality and safety are the important in a project. He stressed on the safety which is the most important thing in an engineering project. According to him, as an engineer, we are not only dealing with technical and technology. We have to deal with clients, colleague, and contractors. Thus, communication skills is very important. Then, he shared his experience in PTP since 1997. How PTP develop from zero to 5km container yard which has the capacity of 100milions TEU. In developing PTP, there are a lot of issue such as environmental issue, design issue, construction issue, and so on. He also talked about the employer's expectations on employee.
- Having in-depth technical competence in a specific engineering discipline.
- Ability to function effectively in a group as leader or member
- Ability to acquire and apply knowledge of engineering fundamentals.
- Ability to communicate effectively to colleagues and community
- Ability to undertake problem identification, formulation and solution
- Having social awareness on sustainable development
- Ability to utilize a system approach to design and evaluate operational performance
- Ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyse and interpret data
Lastly, he stressed on engineering ethics which is a field of applied ethics and system of moral principle that apply to the practice of engineering. The engineering ethics is basically handled by IEEE and NSPE to ensure engineers perform their obligation to society, client, and profession.
