SYNOPSIS
This course provides an in-depth exploration of botanical concepts relevant to Dendrology. Students will gain a solid understanding of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN) and learn essential herbarium management techniques. A comprehensive overview of plant taxonomic systems will equip students with the knowledge to apply taxonomic concepts effectively in Dendrology. Practical sessions will focus on utilizing flora checklists, plant and wood classification systems, and identifying key characteristics of dipterocarps and non-dipterocarps. Field discussions and hands-on experiences at Sandakan Herbarium and Forest Reserve will reinforce learning and provide opportunities to apply theoretical knowledge. The course will also delve into global vegetation patterns, with a particular focus on forest types in Malaysia and the world. Students will explore dominant tree species within each forest type and examine the relationships between these species and their specific habitats.
Dendrology is the foundational science for forestry and conservation; it is impossible to be effective in either field without the ability to accurately identify and understand woody plants. Knowing the trees is the essential first step to knowing the forest.
The aim of the course is to develop the students’ ability to solve complex engineering problems into more simpler and logical forms using numerical methods. It is designed to narrow down the gap between the fields of engineering and mathematics.
This
course educates the students on multivariable calculus to solve variety of
engineering problems. The topics covered include vector, vector-valued
function, partial derivatives, multiple integrals and integration in vector
fields.
This course educate students on multivariable calculus, which is an extension of
introductory Calculus. This course equips students with understanding,
appreciation, and application of calculus as well as to solve variety of
engineering problems using multivariable calculus. The topics covered include vector, vector-valued
function, partial derivatives, multiple integrals and integration in vector
fields.
This unit helps to develop knowledge and skills in utility system and facilities in Oil
and Gas production processes. The facilities include the Oil and Gas production
processes on Upstream, Midstream and Downstream. The utility systems involved
in Oil and Gas production processes are introduced; which include the Process
control systems, Digital oilfield, Power generation and distribution, Flare and
Atmospheric ventilation, Instrument air systems, Heating, Ventilation and Air
Conditioning system (HVAC), Water systems, Chemicals and additives, Diesel fuel
system, Drainage system, and Telecom.
This course will discuss an overview on several thermal and non-thermal processes such as ohmic heating, Pulsed Electric Field (PEF), High Hydrostatic Pressure (HPP), ionizing irradiation, UV light and etc. Their respective principles, potential applications, advantages and disadvantages of each technique will be discussed. This course enables students to catch up with latest technology involved in food processing.
This is an introductory course to nutrition at the molecular level, an emerging field in nutrition research. Students will be exposed to gene-nutrient interactions including genetic disorders particularly Inborn Errors of Metabolisms (IEMs). Emphasis will be given to published scientific research findings.
This course is the continuation of NN00206 Research Project 1, where students are required to complete their ongoing research project. In this course, students will focus on laboratory analyses and/or field work. It is the students’ responsibility to consult their supervisor regarding the final year project (FYP). At the end of the project, students will report their findings in the form of a FYP report, which will be submitted for examination by two examiners (not including the supervisor). The examiners shall be appointed by the course coordinator. All FYP reports submitted for examination must adhere to the scientific writing style and standards approved by UMS. Each student will be called to defend his/her FYP report in an oral examination, which will be conducted after submission of the report. After that, students are expected to do corrections as recommended by the supervisor and examiners.
This course introduces the land application of farm mechanization in modern agriculture. This course also examines machinery used for land preparation, planting, crop maintenance, harvesting, and post-harvest processing. The construction, operation, and maintenance of common farm machinery will be discussed. Financial farm machinery performance and the economics of mechanization, including field efficiency, operating costs, fixed costs, and variable costs, for effective management decisions will be covered.
This course introduces students to the concepts, technologies and applications involved in precision farming (PF). This entails the use of ICT and some high-technology equipment for assessing field conditions and applying variable rates of production inputs for management of soil nutrients, weeds, pest & diseases. Topics include sampling procedures, and measurements of parameters through environmental sensors, GNSS, RS and PS. Data input into GIS or analysis using Geo-statistical & Mapping software to accomplish primary spatial data management tasks, creation of spatial variability maps for mechanized applications of farm inputs. Students will also be exposed to precision technologies in livestock production for locating as well as feeding, reproduction and health management. Students will participate in some hands-on experience in the use of enabling hardware and software in PF applications.

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to several important areas of mathematics, including foundational concepts (logic, set theory, real numbers) and more advanced topics (complex numbers and calculus). It establishes a strong foundation for advancing in the study of mathematics and applying it across various fields.
This module is basically concerning quantitative statistical methodologies that are used for analyzing quantitative data derived from commonly conducted biological experiments. Topics covered in this course also include basic experimental design for biological experiments conducted in the field or under controlled conditions in the laboratory or other such setting. Real data from the field and laboratory experiments will be used in all statistical tests carried out. Computer cum tutorial classes will be conducted to demonstrate how the statistical analyses are carried out using popular statistical software programs and to discuss the results obtained. This course will give focus on the application of the quantitative analytical skills to solve real world problems.
