What is ISEC ?

Date : 20-22 April 2012
Venue : Kulliyah of Engineering, International Islamic University Malaysia
Theme : ENVIROTECH - Empowering Young Engineer
Target Participants : Secondary school students from 70 schools around Malaysia

   Inter-School Engineering Challenge (ISEC) is a competition-based programthat comprises a series of stages, with the combination of four subjects, namely Additional Mathematics, Modern Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics, as the subject of matter.

   The activities for this competition will be based on the car invention which comprise of two parts which are first, the model presentation by each team and secondly the speed race between each models. Based on these two criteria, we will select the best five teams with the best models which will be competing in the final. The winner for this competition will be decided again based on the best model presentation during the final and also the fastest model of all.

FEE : RM500 each team (including accommodation, transportation duringevent, food, T-shirt, kid)

Prizes:
1st prize - RM 3000
2nd prize - RM 2000
3rd prize - RM 1500

Categories:
Best presenter - RM 400
Fastest car - RM 400

Objective

- As the platform for the students to show their talent in basic engineering field.

- To apply the basic subjects learned in school into the engineering field.

- To enhance student ability in solving problems.

- To expose the basic engineering theory.
