JOHOR BAHRU 14 Jun- Permintaan tinggi terhadap kerjaya arkitek dan tawaran yang baik menyebabkan ramai lulusan jurusan berkenaan tidak melepaskan peluang bekerja di luar negara.

Tindakan itu sedikit sebanyak menjadi punca kekurangan jumlah tenaga kerja profesional tersebut di negara ini dan jumlahnya tidak selari dengan keperluan negara yang sedang pesat membangun.

Menurut Timbalan Presiden Pertubuhan Arkitek Malaysia, Ar. Saifuddin Ahmad, negara ini melahirkan jumlah lulusan jurusan senibina yang berkualiti sehingga mendapat permintaan tinggi untuk mengisi pasaran kerja di luar negara.

“Kebanyakan lepasan universiti tempatan mencari peluang kerja di Singapura dan Timur Tengah. Malah, siswazah yang menuntut di luar negara juga cenderung untuk bekerja di sana berbanding balik ke Malaysia.

“Kekurangan tersebut turut ditambah dengan bilangan mereka yang lulus peperiksaan senibina tahap ketiga juga adalah kecil,” katanya selepas merasmikan Bengkel Senibina ke-23 anjuran penuntut senibina Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) di sini, semalam.

Turut hadir, Dekan Fakulti Alam Bina UTM, Prof. Madya Dr. Ahmad Nazri Muhamad Ludin.

Program yang bermula kelmarin dan berakhir Jumaat ini mengetengahkan tema Terang 2011 menyaksikan penglibatan seramai 400 peserta daripada 21 institusi pengajian tinggi seluruh negara.

Saifuddin berkata, universiti tempatan juga melahirkan jumlah lulusan senibina yang sedikit jika dibandingkan dengan negara maju lain.

“Tetapi harus diingat bahawa biarpun jumlahnya sedikit, mereka adalah golongan yang berkualiti, cuma masalahnya adalah jumlahnya tidak mencukupi apatah lagi dengan pembangunan pesat yang dikecapi negara pada masa ini,” katanya.

Sementara itu, Ahmad Nazri berkata, setiap tahun UTM hanya melahirkan kira-kira 80 siswazah senibina.

Menurutnya, jumlah tersebut dikurangkan daripada 100 kepada 80 orang bagi menjaga kualiti graduan supaya sesuai dengan pasaran kerja dan selaras dengan kehendak negara dalam melahirkan modal insan kelas pertama.

There have been some confusion of the Thesis 1st stage report. This thread seeks to rectify that problem.

First, we need to address the issue of Thesis Report vs Journal Paper. Until now, the department have not given the greenlight for us to proceed with the Journal Paper method. We’ve been trying to have a meeting to sit down and discuss on this, but we will only be able to do so next week (Wednesday 20 Oct 2010). Hence, we would have to postpone the implementation of the Journal Paper submissions until the outcome of that meeting.

Which means, everybody would have to submit the 1st draft of the report on Monday by 12pm at my room (B11-309),

So that’s that. Now, about what to put in the report. Guess what? Read it in the forum!

INTRODUCTION

‘DESIGN Thesis’ is a final major design exercise in the formal education of a student architect to test his/her accumulated knowledge and skills in handling architectural problems. It provides a unique opportunity for students to pursue their own interests in architecture and the built environment through the medium of a building or a complex of buildings of their own choice from preparation or investigation of brief to design proposal, and accompanied by a full documentation of investigations, findings, alternative decisions and conclusions. A thesis should also be able to provide excitement and exploratory opportunities for the student; allowing for challenging solutions, element of surprise and the crossing of threshold in architectural ideas.

DESIGN THESIS PROPOSAL

Students are required to submit their proposal in the form of Statement of Intent. This will be then be subject to approval by the Coordinators and the respective panels before embarking on the studies.
