From 17 to 21 June 2013, it was indeed a great pleasure for the faculty to have Dr. Sheila Trahar as a Visiting Academician. Sheila is a Reader in International Higher Education from Graduate School of Education (GSoE), University of Bristol (UoB) in England. This was her second visit to the faculty, during which her expertise was consulted on in refining documents for Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between UTM and UoB. She was also involved in post graduate curricular review and conducted a talk entitled “The Importance of Philosophy in Understanding/Conducting Educational Research”. The faculty wishes to express heartfelt gratitude to Sheila for her exceptional dedication and commitment during her visit.
