Education
I’m currently pursuing my postgraduate education in International Project Management, which is a cooperation initiative between Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden and Northumbria University in the UK.
My thesis is about Customer Knowledge Management in International Projects; a study on how knowledge management can enhance project marketing, globally.
In this program, I have learnt about various aspects of project management, such as: business performance, human resources and organisational behaviour. My most favourite classes were:
- Knowledge management
- Leadership & communication
- Organizational project management
- Program & portfolio management
- Project psychology
- Risk & value management
- Strategic management
As a student, I also participated in the Association of Project Management competition and managed to be among the finalists, together with my team-mates from Northumbria University.
Prior to my Master’s degree, I have studied Mobile Computing in Limokwing University of Creative Technology, in Malaysia and I was honoured to graduate with the highest merits for my academic and extracurricular performance.
Having the opportunity to mix with students from all over the world, inspired me with a truly global perspective and I see it as an amazing experience during my education. I always saw that campus as a little UN!
During the college, and although I was learning about technology and devices, I became deeply enthusiast about human aspect of various projects and found myself attending to business related classes as a guest, participating in the debate club and eventually became a student member of the Project Management Institute. Later in my final year, I was confident that my next move would be to continue my education in a business / management direction!
Looking back, my most favourite courses from undergraduates probably are:
- Creative Studies
- Global Information System Management
- Interaction design
- Knowledge Management
- Mobile commerce
- Software project management
My final project was E-Wallet; a research on potentials and future of smartphones in commerce.
