                                  On the 19th of September 2023, 40 Kuen Cheng High School students

                           from the Senior Middle One Science Stream were invited to Nottingham
                      University Malaysia for lectures and interactive activities regarding chemical
            engineering and STEM courses.


                    At 7.40 a.m., two teachers, Mr. Ooi Hun Huang and Ms. Cheah Wing Lam led the
            students on a bus to Nottingham University Malaysia in Semenyih. Many students could
            not contain their excitement as this was the first field trip in their first year at the senior
            level.


                    Before the lectures, students were given refreshments provided by the university
            while waiting for the arrival of students from other schools. Five school groups were present

            at the university, notably students from the Royal Military College and students from SMJK

                                                                The first lecture about career options began
                                                         at 9 in the morning, presented by Prof. Dominic
                                                         C.Y. Foo. He introduced the future prospects

                                                         in the scientific and medical fields while also
                                                         talking about his past projects and research.
                                                         After  the  career  talk,  students  were  given  a  tour
                                                         of  Nottingham  University,  which  included  the
                                                         research laboratories, equipment and facilities.
