The 6th Mathematics and Physical Science Graduate Congress 2010 (6th MPSGC)
The 6th MPSGC is jointly organized by the Science Faculties of the University of Malaya (UM), the National University of Singapore (NUS), and Chulalongkorn University (CU) hosted by UM at the Faculty of Science, UM, 13-15 December 2010. The congress sponsors selected participants from the three universities while also welcome all graduates from Southeast Asian universities as well as outside the region.
The primary objective of the MPSGC is to provide postgraduates from various backgrounds a convergence point and a common platform to present and discuss their research findings. This meeting will be an international forum on the recent development of research in both mathematical and physical sciences carried out regionally. It is hoped that such a diverse forum will pique the scientific curiosity of these young minds, and cement their appreciation of not only their own disciplines, but other related ones. Moreover, despite its academic nature, this event will also provide an exposure to multi-cultural interests among the graduates from this region. Such appreciation and exposure will surely be the seed to the growth and flowering of inter-disciplinary and inter-institution collaborative programs in the future. Another benefit of this event, in addition to the exchange of scientific ideas, is the provision of an avenue for networking among graduates in the region, indirectly enhancing their organizational and communication skills.
