IIUM, for the first time, is now organizing the IIUM Research, Innovation and Invention Exhibition (IRIIE). The event was launched yesterday at the university Cultural Activity Centre (CAC), and will be officially closed on today afternoon.
Last time, such event was organized only by the Kulliyyah of Engineering, not for the other kulliyyah . It was known as Kulliyyah of Engineering Research and Invention Exhibition (KERIE). So this time, I would say that the key organizer is still the Kulliyyah of Engineering, but it is organized in a larger scope that requires participation from all other kulliyyah, including those from Kuantan, PJ and Nilai Campuses.
As the name suggests, this event provides space for the researchers and students (mainly postgrad) from the university to exhibit their researches, inventions and products to the visitors. It is also aimed to attract people from industries to collaborate with the researchers here, so that the inventions can be commercialized soon. As a motivation also, all inventions would be judged (by external judges - mainly from industries) and be given some awards, i.e. gold, silver, bronze & special award. I guess the results have now been announced there.
