Enriching experience for UST at MSU
MANAGEMENT and Science University (MSU) recently bade farewell to five students from the Philippines’ University of Santo Tomas (UST) at the conclusion of their Global Internship Programme (GIP) in Malaysia.
The five, from UST’s Faculty of Pharmacy Department of Medical Technology were Harvey M. Barcellano, Nehemiah Baldlong Muia, Jean Nicole Angelo, Adrienne Valerie D Dalina, and Calixto Jhovenay. They were integrated into the biomedical science programme at the Management and Science University (MSU) Faculty of Health and Life Science (FHLS).
Sharing light moments at their sendoff by MSU President, Professor Tan Sri Dato’ Wira Dr Mohd Shukri Ab Yajid, the UST students were full of praises for their global mobility experience at MSU.
Harvei M Barcellano described his learning experiences at MSU as beyond expectation. He said the Global Mobility Programme provided him with the holistic growth that students need.
Nehemiah Baldlong Mula had chosen MSU for its melting pot of international students, as well as the focus and training on becoming an excellent researcher.
Jean Nicole Angelo, who said her MSU experience was out of the book, appreciated the new knowledge which she intends to apply back in the Philippines.
The fact that she did not feel homesick because everyone was very welcoming prompted her to encourage future participants of the MSU Global Internship Programme to treasure the new friendships they are bound to make.
Naming MSU’s focus on building students’ global competitiveness as her choice of the MSU Global Internship Programme, Adrienne Valerie D Dalina knew it would be a great opportunity to expand her knowledge of biomedical science, and learned a lot about contributing to medicinal research she did.
Jhovenay U Calixto discovered a passion for research, and chose meeting co-students and the lecturers at MSU as her best moments throughout her experience learning the Malaysian culture.
