University of Malaya, the first
University of the country, is
situated on a 750-acre (309-hectare)
campus in the southwest of Kuala
Lumpur, the capital city of
Malaysia. By 2008, the Institute of
Graduate
Studies (IGS, formerly known as IPS) in Universiti Malaya,
has attracted over ten thousands of
graduate students domestically, and
internationally from nearly 70
countries. IPS has truly indeed
reflected the University motto, "Ilmu
Punca Kemajuan" (Knowledge
is the Key to Success). The IGS is
in its constant endeavor to seek
knowledge in all fields to produce
successful graduates and a
successful nation.

Backed by a
recent popular demand, the Deputy
Dean of IGS, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Siti
Aishah Hashim Ali, once again
organized a one-day Mathematica V6
on 28th Aug 2008 at IGS. The
workshop was quickly signed up to
the maximum by graduate students
with different disciplines &
technical interests.
|
|
When the
graduate students witnessed the
power of symbolic computation
package for the first time, they
were pleasantly impressed with what
Mathematica V6 could do to their
projects. Many have demanded for
more in-depth training of
Mathematica. OPTIMAL Expert will
bring in more essential Mathematica
short courses in near future, to
help contribute to the quest of
excellence by IGS! |

"The Mathematica software is the most
convenient software to use in my research. I
learnt how to solve the complex equation and
also doing graphics for the output result of
my research" - Nurul Syazana bt.
Amirudin, Universiti Malaya
"The course attended is very useful
especially to know how to do with the
mathematica V6 for data colllection, import
& export and plot. - Hanafiah Shamsudin,
Universiti Malaya
"After I attended this course, I feel that
Mathematica is more easy/user friendly
compared to other computational application.
- Latifah Harun, Universiti Malaya
"Mathematica helps in analyzing experimental
/ simulation result. Draw interactive graphs
not found in excel" - Chan Siew Yin,
Universiti Malaya
"I am interested in generating animation, 3D
visualization and data conversion between MS
Excel and Mathematica." - Yalda
Motadelrou, Universiti Malaya
