Date: 16 to 19 June 2019

Venue : TAR UC Penang and Penang Island

From 16 to 19 June 2019, 18 visiting students from Coventry University (CU) interacted with our TAR UC Penang Branch students. The first item on the itinerary began on 16 June 2019 with a morning bike tour of the Georgetown heritage area, followed by an enjoyable local Indian breakfast.

On 17 June 2019, CU students had an interactive session with our students. They were randomly teamed up to design a proposal of business ideas and asked to present the ideas to the panel made up of CU and TAR UC lecturers. It was followed by a mini open day in the afternoon where the CU students introduced CU campus and lifestyle to our local students.

On 19 June 2019, CU students visited KPMG. They got a better idea of the functions of an audit firm after listening to KPMG’s panel of presenters. In the afternoon, TAR UC students introduced the local Malaysian culture including traditional costumes, games and food to the CU students. Everybody had a wonderful day and TAR UC students are to be commended for their efforts to organise the very successful sharing session.
