Events in year 2009/2010


1st Semester



Freshies Camp 09/10

Fresh thoughts, ambitions, and ideas tend to follow up when this event comes.
Many 109 intake were 50-50 by knowing us at the beginning but as time goes and we mingled around, the new faces were very much welcomed in to the ICS family and they loved it. It was one week(7days) programme where juniors will get to know each others and also the seniors. Started on Monday and ends on Sunday with a Finale Nite.
This is where juniors were exposed to the university life to the MAX.
Bravo Juniors!




Talent Gala 2009

This is a wonderful annual show where students don't miss it. This is a show where our MMU students are to perform and expose their talents to the outside world. This grand event's budget is RM 22,000.00. Not only that people, we have our local artist performing in this grand show as well. Talent Gala 2009 was associated with Hervin, Psychomantra, Dhilip Varman, Visvamitra, and Rapperayana which left the stages rocking to the very end. The noble part of this show is that the profit is channeled to the ICS tuition class in collaboration with MINDA.
