UTeM comes to aid of financially-strapped student


MELAKA: A financially-stricken student's dream to be an engineer is one step closer to a reality after Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM) decided to waive her first semester fees and give her an allowance.

UTeM vice-chancellor Prof Dr Massila Kamalrudin said 18-year-old Nabilah Zainuddin was earlier given a place in the university to pursue a diploma in manufacturing engineering but she was unable to take up the offer due to her family's financial constraints.
