E-Log Book

               Students  are  required  to  complete  and  submit  their  e-log  book  online  via  student
               portal (http://myum.um.edu.my) after each meeting with their supervisors.

               The purpose of the e-Log Book is to:

                   •  keep a record of your meetings with your supervisor(s).
                   •  clearly identify the outcomes of each meeting and the actions that are
                       required on the part of the student.
                   •  support the self-evaluative and reflective process that is necessary while
                       writing a thesis.
                   •  provide evidence of the process to the Board of Examiners.

               Student’s responsibility: It is the responsibility of the student to keep the e-log book up
               to  date.  Students  are  expected  to  comply  with  the  supervisor(s)’  suggestions  and
               recommendations as noted by the student in the Log Book and approved by the
               supervisors.

               Students are required to complete and submit their progress report online via student
               portal (http://myum.um.edu.my) to their respective supervisors at the end of each
               semester.

               A candidate is required to submit a research progress report between Week 16 until
               Week 18 of each semester before the registration of the following semester begins

               Supervisor and Co-Supervisors shall evaluate the candidate’s research progress report
               in accordance with the prescribed procedures and complete the evaluation within
               one (1) week from date of receipt.

               A candidate whose progress is satisfactory shall be recommended to continue with
               his  candidature.  A  candidate  whose  progress  is  not  satisfactory  for  two  (2)
               consecutive  semesters  shall  have  his  candidature  terminated  by  the  Faculty.  The
               Director  of  Advanced  Academic  Service  Centre  (AASC)  shall  be  informed  of  the
               candidate’s candidature termination by the Faculty.

               Candidate  who  fail  to  submit  the  report  are  evaluated  as  unsatisfactory  in  their
               progress.  Candidature  will  be  terminated  if  the  student  receives  unsatisfactory
               evaluation for e-progress report for two consecutive semesters.
