KUCHING: A total of 32 final year students of the Bachelor of (Hons) Business and Management (BABM) under the University of Sunderland, United Kingdom programme showed their true capabilities as student and researcher when they participated in the Dissertation Poster Presentation Competition held at SEGi College Sarawak on 16th and 17th December 2012.
The Dissertation of a research project is one of the most important assignments for students who are completing their Bachelor’s Degree and it helps students to develop strong analytical skills and the ability to conduct research independently.
“Students learn to master the skills of conducting research by doing a dissertation project. They develop the ability to undertake investigation, identify resources, review literature, applying appropriate research methodology and produce professional reports when undertaking this project,” said Miss Diana Atton, Program Coordinator of Faculty of Business and Accountancy.
The Best Dissertation Poster Presentation 2012 award went to Ms Felicia Ngu Siaw Ting with her research entitled “Sales Promotion on Halal Product. A case study on Non-Food Product among Muslims and Non-Muslims.”
