“I personally felt that this event is a great platform for participants to showcase their presentation skills as well as their understanding in the topic they chose. It is also very beneficial for postgraduates to present about their research to see how far will their research take them in this competition.\”said Teh Yue Kai, the program director of IET UNITEN PATW 2017.
The winner of PATW 2017 UNITEN round went to Koguleshun Subramaniam, which presented his topic entitled \”A New Heterogeneous Catalytic Pre-treatment System For Biodiesel Production Using Malaysian Biomass Supported Catalyst\”.
