On 13 November 2017, Department Geology of the University of Malaya had welcomed a visit of 80 Form 1 students and teachers from SMK Cyberjaya who were keen to catch a glimpse of the magnificent world of geology. This event is in collaboration with the lecturers of the Geology Department.

Various exciting workshops were coordinated by University of Malaya AAPG SC to expose the students on the basic knowledge of geology such as the 3 main types of rocks, minerals, fossils, coals, LiDAR, and others.

In addition, the students were thrilled to experience observing rocks under a microscope, polishing rocks and measuring dip and strike by using a geological compass during the technical workshops. A Volcano Competition was also held to intensify the students' creativity while exploring geology in a casual environment. The judges were Dr Ng Tham Fatt and Prof Dr. Azman, the Head of Department of Geology, University of Malaya.

Three groups with brilliant presentations and two outstanding students were given an award at the end of the event.

We from University of Malaya AAPG SC would like to express our gratitude to all the lecturers and staff who made GEOINTRO 2.0 a huge success!
