Message from the Dean
Salam Sejahtera, Salam EcoCampus,
It has been a great pleasure taking on the FSMP Bulletin as the Advisor for two years. I would like to thank the editorial team for their efforts in creating this wonderful bulletin.
As we are facing this global pandemic, much of our work and activities are hindered. But I am proud that all faculty members have taken great efforts to contribute not only to FSMP and UMS, but also to the community. By switching from physical to virtual, we make sure that we still can contribute even during this trying time. All those contributions made possible when we work together as a team. With this note, I am very confident with faculty members ability and dedication to steer FSMP to another fruitful and exciting year.
May you find this issue inspiring and entertaining.
Thank you.

During Semester 2, 2020/2021, the FSQ64203 Food Safety and Quality Assurance Seminar course held
Seminar 1 and Seminar 2, which were organized virtually via Google Meet platform by four students Masters of Science in Food Safety and Quality (MFSQ). Both Seminar 1 and Seminar 2 event were held on the 24th May 2021 (Monday) and 28th June 2021

It was held as one of the requirements and was made compulsory in course FSQ64203 Food Safety and Quality Assurance Seminar. Moreover, this course is being offered during the 2nd semester in the second year for
Masters FSQ admission.
The main objective of these seminars is to give opportunity for students to express their views on current and emerging topics or issues related to food safety and quality. Besides, this is also to encourage structured
research on the information and to improve their presentation as well as written communication skills. In
addition, students will also gain real experience on how to organize and manage seminars with the guidance from lecturers. On the other hand, students are also able to work together and collaboratively with different people in conducting seminar event. Along the seminar process, students were also able to
demonstrate substantial responsibility in planning, resource management, problem solving and managing seminars within the organization.
Throughout these seminars, students were guided by lecturers and course coordinator. During lectures, students were given exposure on presentation related to food safety and quality assurance current trends and issues.
Meanwhile during the course
program, students were advised to form an organisation to conduct seminar and they are given time to prepare presentation related to food safety and quality assurance topics.
Additionally, postgraduates students were also required to prepare
complete and precise information based on topics chosen from literature review and scientific information.
Other than presentation skills and ability to organise seminar, students were also exposed to write scientific and comprehensive reports.
