Food Science and Nutrition

Eng Suit Ying is an R & D Executive of Stancodex Sdn. Bhd., a company with its head office in Kota Damansara, Petaling Jaya, Selangor. The company's factory in Johor produces coconut cream powder, low-fat desiccated coconut and non-diary creamer.

Here is what Ms Eng has to say about her job as an R & D Executive, “My first project is to develop a coconut milk powder that will dissolve in cold water. The main aim is to export this coconut powder to the Middle East and China where people actually use coconut milk as an alternative to dairy. Hence, with this specially formulated coconut milk powder, there is no hassle in preparing a great tasting glass of coconut milk at home.”

She added, “unlike university life, my current job as R&D executive is more towards applying the theories I’ve learnt within the classroom in research and literature throughout the formulation process.” “Although I have encountered some difficulty in formulating the optimum instant properties and sensory properties, I was able to overcome it through multiple trials and each trial has inspired and motivated me to produce a better formulation. This is definitely a good learning experience and I am looking forward to other new projects to be assigned to me soon.”

MSc Biotechnology

I chose a different university (i.e. UCSI University) for my postgraduate studies because it provides a conducive learning and research environment and there are lecturers with varied qualifications in the Faculty of Applied Sciences. 

My course of study (Master’s in Biotechnology by coursework) basically comprises 40 credits of coursework on different aspects of biotechnology, research planning and academic communication as well as 8 months of research. Generally, my research focuses on providing alternative methods to control bacterial infections apart from antibiotic therapy. At the end of this course, I would have sharpened my skills as an independent researcher capable of designing and conducting a research project and then skilfully communicating my findings.
