Salam & good day everyone! 😄🎀

It feels like just yesterday we were laughing and enjoying ourselves at the PG Team Building Retreat 2.0! The memories of that day are still fresh in my mind, and I wish the same thing too, for all of you. Over the course of 2 days and 1 night, we had the privilege of bonding with fellow postgraduates and RAs from across the health campus, including participants from PPSK, PPSP, and PPSG. Your enthusiasm, teamwork, and positive energy were truly the heart of the retreat, and it was inspiring to see how we came together, regardless of background or field, to strengthen our connections and share in this experience.

I want to express our sincere gratitude to our dearest program advisor, accompanying lecturers & staff, hardworking committee members, and all the wonderful participants for making this event a success and an immensely memorable experience 🥰🫂

Our committee and I would also like to extend our utmost thanks towards our generous sponsors: Unit Pengajian Siswazah PPSK, PPSK, PPSP, PPSG, BHEPA, Pusat Islam USM, PERSALA USMKK. A special thanks to the personal sponsors whose generosity added an extra layer of support. Your invaluable involvement played a crucial role in the success of the PG Teambuilding Retreat 2.0, allowing us to bring together USMKK postgraduates and RAs for this unforgettable experience 🙇🏻🩷

As the representative of the committee, we are hopeful that this annual event will continue to foster strong relationships and create lasting connections that will support our academic and research journeys in the future 💗

On 15th of August 2024, the PPSK Postgraduate Educational Trip to Sea Turtle Research Unit (SEATRU), Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT) was organized by PPSK Postgraduate Secretariat to foster postgraduate student involvement in multidisciplinary studies. This initiative aimed to broaden the academic horizons of the postgraduate students, enhancing their knowledge and exposing them to new perspectives and environments. On the other hand, it built their social skills, and foster collaborations with peers and institute like SEATRU-UMT.

SEATRU-UMT, located on the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia, was renowned for its innovative research and academic excellence in marine science, oceanography, and environmental studies. This trip provided postgraduate students from USM with a unique opportunity to explore interdisciplinary approaches by integrating health sciences with environmental and marine research. This multidisciplinary exposure is important for developing innovative solutions to complex global challenges.

They experienced SEATRU-UMT’s state-of-the-art research facilities and interacted with leading experts in various fields. Additionally, the trip offered a change of scenery and a break from the usual academic pressures. Engaging in new activities and environments can significantly reduce stress and anxiety, contributing to better mental health. The serene coastal environment of Redang Island, SEATRU-UMT, combined with recreational activities and field trips, offers a perfect setting for relaxation and mental rejuvenation.

Overall, this daytrip program was designed to be a transformative experience that not only enhances academic and research skills but also opens students' minds to new worlds of knowledge and possibility and supports the mental well-being of students by offering a refreshing change from their daily routines. The insights and experiences gained during this trip will be instrumental in shaping the future careers of the participating postgraduate students, equipping them with the tools and perspectives needed to excel in their fields while maintaining a healthy and balanced lifestyle.
