INTRODUCTION

This is the first training workshop for The Brunei Students’ Union’s council members, society leaders and their executive committees, facilitated by our guest host, Yang Berhormat Dayang Khairunnisa binti Awang Haji Ash’ari, Member of the Legislative Council, and Co-Founder and Community Engagement Director of Green Brunei. This workshop aims to meet the target of fostering a sense of professionalism within the young leaders so that the administration of their respective societies is characterized by great skill and competence. This will be a more individualized form of preparation, intending to inspire leadership qualities and energy within individual participant, as a complement to the upcoming Presidential Conference. The conference, which will be held in mid-August, will then take on a more administrative model, where society leaders will be engaged in a dialogue pertaining to the bureaucratic reality of running their societies. The BSU Training Workshop would, hence, equip these leaders with the skills and mindset vital to the administration of a successful society beginning from the conference onwards.

OBJECTIVES

To develop and nurture leaders and executive committee members in terms of their professional skills and capabilities
• To build and strengthen networks amongst Bruneians in the UK and Eire
• To instill the Malay Islamic Monarchy philosophy into the hearts and minds of Bruneian students

Name of Bruneian students involved:

Dk Nur Rabi’atul ‘Adawiyah Pg Haji Zulkifli, Third Year Student
Nur Afiatul Haziyah Hassan, Third Year Student
Muhammad Fakhri Haziq Abdul Hakip, Third Year Student
Siti Nurshahira Aboo Samah, Third Year Student

Host Institution:

The UK Radiological Congress and Radiation and Oncology Congress (UKRC) is an annual event co-hosted by the UKRC and UKRO presidents that consists of a three-day multidisciplinary scientific congress and technical exhibitions joined by thousands of people from across imaging background to showcase the state-of-the-art equipment and services available.

This year, the theme was focusing on how new technologies and techniques have been adopted within radiological imaging and radiation oncology, to improve our techniques and optimise patient care and experience.

The congress took place in Manchester at the Manchester Convention Centre running from 12-14 June 2017.

Student Activity:

A group of four final year Bruneian students from Exeter were awarded a Dean’s fund from their University (University of Exeter) to attend the three-day congress in Manchester this year.

The students displayed their University research project poster titled “The effect of Exposure Index (EI) on the subjective analysis of image quality” which had been accepted to be part of the congress.

The student’s research poster was chosen out of 150 poster submissions as one of the the runners up (2nd place) for best research/scientific poster by the UKRC committee.

One of the students (Siti Nurshahira Aboo Samah) accepted the runner up prize given by Maryann Hardy (UKRC president) and Professor Robert Winston (Research Professor in Imperial College London) at the end of the closing ceremony on Wednesday 14 June 2017.

The students engaged and gained ideas and knowledge with exhibitors present during the congress about various topics related to radiological imaging as well as attended sessions that had key-note speakers such as the Society of Radiographers President that could help bring new ideas and suggestions back to Brunei on the up-to-date research and equipment used in the digital imaging field.

The benefits/insights gained from the activity:

By joining the congress, the students gained insight and knowledge from the myriad research conducted by other exhibitors. The students are also up-to-date with the technological advancements available such as different type of equipment widely used in the UK hospitals and how it can be utilised to improve service efficiencies, as these might be the future for radiographers especially for Brunei radiographers.

Furthermore, the student’s engagement with radiographers from different backgrounds (such as CT radiographers, MRI radiographers and sonographers) could improve network between UK and Brunei Radiographers to exchange new ideas in improving healthcare.

Borneo Bulletin:

A GROUP comprising four final-year Bruneian students from University of Exeter were awarded a Dean’s fund from the university to attend the UK Radiological Congress and Radiation and Oncology Congress (UKRC) held at the Manchester Convention Centre from June 12 to 14.

The students were rewarded with a place in the congress to showcase their university research project poster – titled ‘The effect of Exposure Index (EI) on the subjective analysis of image quality’ – after it was chosen as runner-up (2nd place) out of 150 poster submissions in the ‘best research/scientific poster’ category by the UKRC committee.

The theme for UKRC this year focused on how new technologies and techniques were adopted within radiological imaging and radiation oncology, to improve and optimise patient care and experience.

The congress is an annual event co-hosted by the UKRC and UKRO presidents, consisting a three-day multidisciplinary scientific conference and technical exhibitions participated by thousands from across the medical imaging field to showcase state-of-the-art equipment and services.

The runner-up prize was presented to the students by Maryann Hardy (UKRC president) and Professor Robert Winston (Research Professor in Imperial College London) at the end of the closing ceremony on June 14.

At the congress, the four students gained valuable insight and knowledge from the myriad research findings and exhibits displayed by the other participants. The students were also made aware of the latest technological advancements in radiology available to and used in UK hospitals – such as different types of equipment – and how it can be utilised to improve service efficiency. These new technologies are quite possibly the future for radiographers not just in the UK, but those in Brunei as well.

The students’ interaction with radiographers from different backgrounds (such as CT radiographers, MRI radiographers and sonographers) could pave a path for improved networking and collaboration between the UK and Brunei radiographers, allowing for the exchange of new ideas to improve healthcare.

The Brunei Students’ Union is proud to present:
The Golden Jubilee Design Competition!

Screen Shot 2017-06-23 at 5.17.47 AM

This is held in celebration of the 50th year or Golden Jubilee of His Majesty the Sultan’s reign as monarch. So artists, this is your opportunity to manifest your spirit of patriotism into a piece of your own!

This competition will require participants to first conceptualise a 3D model symbolising an aspect of His Majesty’s reign. This could be something to signify His Majesty himself, a momentous occasion during his reign, the prosperous Brunei that His Majesty has brought about, the development of Brunei student’s unit in the UK or anything at all that would be pertinent to the grand occasion – let your creativity run wild.


This design should be detailed in the proposal form, which can be found here:
DesignCompetitionProposal

Among the things that should be considered are:

  • Is it feasible for this design to be produced into an actual 3D model?
  • Does the participant have the capacity and resources to produce this model?

The proposal form should then be submitted to vp.admin@bsunion.org by 26th July 2017 at 11.59am Brunei time.

These proposals would then go through a selection process by the Brunei Students’ Unit. The selected participants, announced on 1st August 2017, would then be given the opportunity to construct the piece in its actual three-dimensional form.
Hence, once again, it is important that participants have assessed the feasibility of and their capability in doing so.

The deadline to produce this model is will be announced further in the competition & the winner will then have their product showcased in addition to winning a cash prize!


Registration is free and open to all Bruneian students in the UK. You may enter as an individual participant or as a team of a maximum of five members. Though the latest date to submit your proposal is 26th July, we would like you to express your interest by 3rd July 2017 by filling in this form:
