The Consultation sessions were also given, allowing students to seek advice and clarification from their supervisors.
The writing sessions played a crucial role in the program, offering dedicated time for students to work on their thesis. These sessions were interspersed with meals, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner, ensuring participants had the necessary sustenance to remain focused and productive.
The camp also included sharing sessions led by two fellow researchers, Waseem Naser and Fahmi Ali Hudaefi, providing opportunities for participants to learn from their peers and gain inspiration from their experiences.
Also, Prof. Noorhaidi Hassan, the dean of the faculty, delivered a speech, to encourage the participants with, again, some guidelines in writing thesis.
Alongside the main objective of enhancing students' writing skills, the camp incorporated enjoyable activities like board games and a lively karaoke party. These recreational elements provided participants with opportunities to relax, bond, and have fun, fostering a sense of camaraderie and creating a well-rounded experience.
