Picture: BT/SaifulizamA TOTAL of 140 graduates and undergraduates of Universiti Brunei Darussalam (UBD) who have excelled in their studies were rewarded yesterday evening at the Universiti Medals and Book Prizes presentation ceremony at Jerudong Park Polo and Country Club.
The ceremony is held in conjunction with UBD 21st Convocation, and 14 students will receive the Universiti Silver Award this year. The award is given to the best student in his or her respective study programme.
Guest of honour for the ceremony was Minister of Health Yang Berhomat Pehin Orang Kaya Indera Pahlawan Dato Seri Setia Hj Suyoi Hj Osman.
Her Royal Highness Paduka Seri Pengiran Anak Isteri Pengiran Anak Sarah was also among the recipients, being awarded a Book Prize for outstanding performance in her third year of studies in the Bachelor of Arts (Public Policy and Administration) programme.
In his address, Vice Chancellor Dr Hj Zulkarnain told the audience that the medals and book prizes is an appreciation by UBD to its students who achieved outstanding results.
"With this success, I hope it will be an incentive to you, and motivate you to continuously strive to achieve success and excellence in the future. The award tonight should make you (the recipients) the role models to other students," said Dr Hj Zulkarnain.
"You are seen as high achievers and carry huge responsibilities to expand your excellence outside the lecture rooms," added the Vice-Chancellor.
He also reminded the recipients that they are the future leaders of Brunei, and will be responsible to spearhead the growth and development of the country.
The ceremony will see 14 students receiving the Silver Award, 123 students receiving the Universiti book prize, 3 will receive the Award of Achievement and 10 will be recipients of the BLNG award sponsored by BLNG Sdn Bhd.
Among the recipients of the Silver Award is Chong Youn Bao, a graduate in Bachelor of Science, majoring in Computer Science. When asked on what project he contributed to during his time in UBD, he said that there is a Student Management System written by a group of them. The students from the faculty were able to upload their assignments into the system, and lecturers can use the programme to review assignments of students.
Tang Yuan Pin was one amongst the Book prize recipients. She topped the semester for her Bachelor of Science programme in Chemistry. The 23-year-old told The Brunei Times that her love for chemistry started during her time in Sekolah Tinggi Perempuan Raja Isteri. She was deeply influenced by her chemistry teacher Ciku Hasima at that time and decided to pursue the major in UBD.
Another recipient for the Book Prize was Foo Gwen Heong, the top student of the semester for Computer Science. He spoke of his interest in programming among the different technical skills being taught to them in their course. The 23-year-old is currently doing his project on a Distributors Advertising System, and declines to reveal extra information about his project.
There is again no recipient for the Gold Award this year. It is said that a recipient will only receive a Gold Award if they are outstanding on all aspects of their universiti life, from academic, extra-curricular activities, social life to contributions to the community.
As one professor humourously put it, "You know Clark Kent (Superman)? If our students perform just slightly better than him, they should be able to get the Gold Award."
