On 21 Oct and 04 Nov 2015, 90 Bachelor of Business students visited Trans-Ocean Coatings & Chemical Sdn. Bhd., Kuching. The trips were organized by Miss Ki Yen Ping, a faculty member who specializes in the area of Human Resource Management. The purpose of the visit is to develop students’ practical skills and attitudes that will enable them to participate effectively in the future real-world working context.

During the visit, the Factory Manager, Mr. Daryl Lau led the students for a tour visit and had spent some time with the students, introducing them to the human resource management functions of the organization, including training and development, performance appraisal, HR planning, job analysis, recruitment and selection, and employee remuneration.

This industrial tour had provided practical insights of the real-time business environment, especially for our international and exchange students. In addition to that, the trips had also inspired their sense of admiration towards our university and to attract more international students in future. Furthermore, this will also increase their understanding of our cultures and communities.
