MPK 2014 provides recognition to six categories of awards for students. The two major categories are the Persada Kencana Awards for Best Research and Best Thesis (for research students) and Best Student (for coursework & mixed-mode students). The remaining categories are The School Award Winners, Prestigious External Award and the Sanggar Sanjung Awards (Publications & Patents). There was an ISDEV student in receipt of an award that day in almost every category. ISDEV is indeed privileged and honoured to have helped these students to achieve academic excellence and accomplished prestigious recognition by USM. It is hoped that their achievements have in some ways helped to raise the image of Islam and ISDEV too.
