Top notch educators in KBU

Henry Brooks Adams once said: “A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops”. How true as teachers have touched many lives in one way or another in a mission to educate and guide us.
 

At KBU International College, the students will definitely be taken through a wholesome educational journey with a mix of lecturers who are selectively picked by the management. The lecturers do not only possess academic credentials of PhD but also have solid industrial experience in fields such as Engineering and Computing.

“The PhD learning experience has shaped and strengthened my analytical skills in research and development.  I am now able to impart my knowledge on research and development to my students,” said Dr Christine Lee, Deputy Head of School of Engineering and Computing.

The lecturer who obtained a doctorate in Intelligent Tutoring System from University Malaya also added that the knowledge she has gained enables her to guide the students through in their final-year projects. 

She said: “We were able to teach the students to improve their analytical skills and encourage them to think out of the box. Not only that, I was also able to teach them on ways to write literature review and develop a competent system”

“For example, most of students were able to demonstrate their final-year projects well during the innovation day which took place last year. Industry players who have visited us on that day also talked highly on our students’ projects,” she added. 

Some of Dr Christine’s research papers which were published would be “Web-based C++ Standard Template Library Intelligent Tutoring System (2005), “Work in Progress: Development of a 3-Tier Architecture C++ STL ITS” and “Bayesian-based Intelligent Tutoring System for Teaching C++ STL.
