Another interesting Field Trip was offered to our 2nd yr students, hosted by PetroSains, KL.
A group of students, particularly studying HCI (Human Computer Interaction) modules, from the School of Computer Science, University of Nottingham Malaysia, visited the PetroSains (Science Museum) at Kuala Lumpur. PetroSains has invited and hosted the group for the day, where students explored and inspected the various displays with the aim of taking case studies to improve interaction designs.
The groups was led by Dr Marina Ng, the module convenor and an HCI expert, and accompanied by Dr Amr Ahmed (Head of School). Discussions with the PetroSains team was very useful and resulted on PetroSains funding the students projects and a further invitation to visit the museum again (fully funded by PetroSains) to present their designs there.
