3. SCHOOL OF GRADUATE
STUDIES (SPS)
School of Graduate Studies was established in 1985 as the graduate programs expanded rapidly in
UTM. The school provides a focus for postgraduate activities across the University. It reflects the
central place held by postgraduate education in the Universitys mission. Todays employers are
looking for more than just high academic achievers in their new recruits. They are seeking highly
adaptable individuals who are equipped both with a deeper understanding of their chosen field and
with the knowledge, skills and means to operate at national and international level. We are commit-
ted to the principle of Lifelong Learning, believing that your education should begin, not end, with
graduation. By taking your education that one stage further, you will not acquire new expertise and
knowledge which will make you an asset to any employer, but it will also allow you to spend more
time broadening your mind and gaining new experiences.
The School of Graduate Studies (SPS) is responsible for ensuring that prospective local and inter-
national students have all the information they need to make the right choice and then to facilitate
their postgraduate admission to UTM. SPS is responsible to coordinate the academic programs with
the faculty and maintain the quality of education. The School of Graduate Studies also administers
the academic records and examination of postgraduate students in UTM with the coordination from
all the ten faculties.
The roles of SPS are to:

Support the mission of the university to become a world class center of academic and
technological excellence

MASTER OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING BY TAUGHT COURSE
Degrees granted: M. Eng. (Mechatronics & Automatic Control); M. Eng. (Electronics & Telecommu-
nications); M. Eng. (Electrical Power); M. Eng. (Computer & Microelectronic Systems).
Program Structure: Graduate students can pursue a full-time or part-time taught course program.
The full-time study requires a minimum duration of three semesters, while the part-time program
takes, at least, four normal semesters and one 8-week short semester (about two years). The Uni-
versitys Main Campus in Skudai offers only full-time coursework programs (Perdana Programs),
while the part-time coursework programs (Off-campus Programs) are only available at the Univer-
sitys City Campus in Kuala Lumpur or other centers.
Teaching Methods: A taught module takes the following forms: formal lectures, tutorials and as-
signment and/or laboratory work. Each 3-credit module is delivered in 38 to 42 hours of lectures.
Teaching/learning is student-centered; hence it must be complemented with adequate self-study
and self-learning by the candidate. Part-time taught course programs involve modular teaching and
distance learning, with lectures being delivered on weekends.
Assessment and Grading: Students progress is assessed (continuously) throughout the semester
by a coursework assessment component and a final examination for each module. The coursework
component may consist of set written assignments, practical work/lab assignments, and short tests.
Total mark for each taught module will be 100%. The following table shows the mapping between
score, grade, and grade point received.

SCORE GRADE GRADE POINT

90 - 100 A+ 4.00
80 - 89 A 4.00
75 - 79 A- 3.67

Passing mark for each taught module is 60% or equivalently B-. Students that fail a core subject
must repeat the same subject while students fail an elective subject may replace it with other elective
on approval from the Postgraduate department.
In order to continue to the subsequent semester, students must obtain at least 2.67 cumulative
grade point average (CGPA) or equivalently a B- average for each semester. This is considered as
Conditional Pass. For a Masters degree to be awarded, candidates must complete a minimum of 41
credits and achieve a final academic grade point of at least 3.0 CGPA. The following table shows the
academic standing and students status.

KG - Fail < 2.67 Dismissal of student status
Students may also register a module under HS (attendance only). In order for this module to appear
in the transcript, students attendance must be at least 80%.
Master Project. Another requirement towards the conferment of the Masters degree is that each
student must undertake the master project. This 1 year project will be supervised by a Graduate fac-
ulty lecturer of the University. Towards the end of the 1st semester, students will present a short
presentation regarding the project. At the end of the work, a comprehensive project report/thesis must
be submitted. This project may take one of two forms. Industry project. Such a project will require
the agreement of the industry sponsor who will define the industrial requirements of the project. The
project must still meet academic requirements, defined by the academic supervisor. An industry
co-supervisor may be appointed from persons with appropriate academic standing or experience,
acceptable to the Graduates Committee. Academic project. Such project will be under taken in the
Facultys laboratories. The project may be motivated by an industrial problem, or it may be theoreti-
cal, experimental or design-based.
