  UCSI UNIVERSITY'S 27TH CONVOCATION CEREMONY

Saturday 26/07/2014

UCSI University is holding its 27th Convocation Ceremony on Aug 2, 2014 (Saturday), where its Chancellor Y. Bhg. Tan Sri Datuk Seri Panglima Dr Abdul Rahman Arshad and Vice-Chancellor and President Senior Professor Dato’ Dr Khalid Yusoff will witness the graduation of 1,508 graduands.

This year, UCSI will also introduce the Chancellor’s Gold Medal Award which honours a graduate who demonstrates excellence in study as well as outstanding personal attributes. The recipient of this inaugural award is Tiew Kee Yee who is wheelchair-bound due to his Type 2 spinal muscular atrophy disease. Despite the disease, which causes the muscles of his body to weaken, Kee Yee beat the odds by excelling in both academia and co-curricular activities.
The valedictorian this year is Thaalitha Naidu A/P Suranthiran Naidu who will graduate with the Doctor of Medicine degree. Hailing from Sungai Petani, Thaalitha is the daughter of retired school teachers who went to great lengths in order to realise her dreams of being a doctor.

You are welcome to cover the event. To speak with both the valedictorian and the Chancellor’s Gold Medal Award recipient, we recommend covering the afternoon session.
