Psychology: The science of mind and behaviour
KUCHING: Psychology is the field relating to mental
and behavioural sciences. However, many of us have the misconception that
psychology and psychiatry are the same thing.
Psychology and psychiatry belong to two very
different areas of study although there are in the same field. Psychiatry is
the field devoted especially to the study and treatment of mental disorders,
while psychology is the study of the mind and behaviour of a person.
Psychologists often use scientific methods such
as careful observation, experimentation and analysis. These scientific methods
are important for psychologists in order to look for a different approach based
on solving various cases, depending on the needs of the people, organisation
and society.
There are many companies in Malaysia that require
workers who are knowledge in the field of Psychology for their skills and
approaches, which are especially useful when conducting interviews, sales,
marketing, business negotiations, education and more.
Therefore, SEGi College Sarawak has acknowledged
this industry need and is committed to producing more professionals in this
field through their Diploma in Psychology. Students who study this programme
will enjoy vast career prospects in different fields such as business,
education, health, communication, and others.
Madam Elina Tiu, Principal SEGi College Sarawak,
explained that the syllabus in this diploma was developed in order to educate students
on how to understand human emotions and behaviour through different cases. This practice helps students to develop their
critical thinking and analytical skills in solving mind and behavioural cases.
"Students will have to complete various
subjects offered in this Diploma, such as Introduction to Psychology, Lifespan
Development, Personality, Principles of Counselling, Behaviour and Brain, Criminology
and more, exposing them to different perspectives of human behaviour while also
enhancing their knowledge and skills in various aspects of the field. Students
will also be required to undertake industrial training in relevant institutions
or organisations,” Tiu further elaborated.
The Diploma in Psychology has received
recognition from the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA) and the Ministry of
Higher Education (MOHE). SEGi College Sarawak offers financial assistance in
the form of study loans and scholarships to high achievers in SPM and STPM.
SEGi College Sarawak also offers programmes from
Foundation and Diploma level to Bachelor and Master degrees in various fields
such as culinary arts, hospitality, Islamic banking, finance, nursing, allied
health science, accounting, education, creative arts, mass communication and
law.
SEGi College Sarawak’s law students in action
KUCHING: SEGi College Sarawak’s law students are
in action right after the launching of SEGi College Sarawak Moot Court last
June 2012.
The ability to conduct mock court sessions in
SEGi College Sarawak Moot Court has given law students exposure to and a
different perspective of a court session environment outside of the normal
classroom setting. Having this facility will encourage law students to train
their skills and enhance their knowledge in the law field.
“Having facilities such as a Moot Court will help
the students to familiarise themselves with the actual workplace environment
that is needed in the law field,” said Madam Elina Tiu, Principal of SEGi
College Sarawak.
“Upon graduation, our students will have already
benefited from a platform whereby they experience real-life court sessions and
the environment of law and justice”, added Tiu.

Financial Planning starts young
KUCHING: SEGi College Sarawak Accounting Club
(SCSAC), a club under the Faculty of Business and Accountancy, organised a
discussion session titled “Financial Planning Starts Young” which was held at
the main campus on Friday 27th July 2012.
The aim of this session was to enhance the
student’s industrial knowledge on this matter and, as such, SCSAC invited
financial planning expert, Mr. Victor Liew, Sales Manager-Core Banking
of United Overseas Bank (Malaysia) Bhd to be the guest speaker for the
event.
The discussion focused on the importance of
saving in financial planning. According to Mr. Liew, Malaysians are generally
unaware of the importance of having a sound retirement plan.
They need to be educated and disciplined toward
their retirement saving and need to make saving a habit in their everyday life,
starting at the young age in order to have financial security during their
retirement.
“Mr. Victor Liew shared a lot of useful
information for our future financial programme graduates to explore further
during their studies”, said Madam Elina Tiu, Principal of SEGi College Sarawak.
“The students will benefit from the extra insights
and knowledge gained into their field of study from an industry expert” added
Tiu.
“SCSAC did a good job in organizing this event
and provided a platform for the students to better understand financial
planning”, added Tiu.
All programmes offered within the Faculty of
Business and Accountancy are recognized by the Ministry of Higher Education
(MOHE) and Malaysian Qualification Agency (MQA).
SEGi College Sarawak also provides financial
assistance in the form of study loans and scholarships for high achievers.
