* “The main objective of this colloquia is to increase the students’ interests
and motivations in the field of Science - Technology - Engineering -
Mathematics, or better known as STEM. The lack of interests and motivations
among the students in the field of STEM are now becoming a global issue,
where Malaysia is no exception. This has caused quite an impact not only at
the school level but at the university level as well. This can be seen from
the decline in the number of students’ intake to the university in
STEM-related studies, where the numbers are unable to fulfil the projections
being made by the universities. If this trend continues, it will ultimately
affect the country’s human capital in the future.”
PROF. DATO' TS. DR. ZALIMAN SAULI
VICE CHANCELLOR
UNIVERSITI MALAYSIA PERLIS
* "The Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI) will always be
supporting and encouraging this ISICS programme, as it is in-line with the
country’s Policy of Science, Technology and Innovation 2021-2030 (DSTIN),
which is to produce competence and adaptive talents that are able to create
and develop technologies which are relevant with the changes and need of the
current environment."

* “My first trip to Malaysia was in the 70s and, that was by invitation of my
great friend Mahathir Mohamad. He wanted (at the time), to know from a whole
bunch of other Muslim scientists what Malaysia would do so that we could
develop a great deal of science and technology in the 70s, which was nearly
50 years ago. Indeed, watching what Malaysia has done, I salute him and all
of you for what is happening in Malaysia. Malaysia gives a fantastic example
of an Arab country, or a Muslim country, or for a developing country that
could encourage its young men and women to train in technology and do very
well and become as good as anybody else anywhere in the world. So, I salute
all Malaysian science and technology individuals, and those who led the road
to become this way. I am highly impressed by the preparation of ISICS
programme for my lecture. All went very well, and audience reacted in an
admirable way.”

* The ISICS portrays an impressive line of motivational speakers who open the
world of science to learners of all ages. The engagement of young students is
particularly impressive as demonstrated by the penetrating questions they ask
of the speakers. The seeds of scientific thought planted in those young minds
by world renowned scientists and engineers will no doubt bear fruit as these
young minds blossom into full blown thinkers and leaders of tomorrow. Keep up
the good work and reap the harvest in future years.

* "It was a pleasure to participate remotely in the International STEM and
Innovation Colloquia Series (ISICS). While virtual colloquia can never
replace in-person events, the exchange of questions and answers online was
vibrant part of the experience"
PROFESSOR DR. WILLIAM DANIEL PHILLIPS
Nobel Prize in Physics 1997

* "ISICS fills a very real need to try to motivate students to pursue careers
in STEM fields by introducing them to some of the most exciting topics at the
forefront of STEM fields today. I very much enjoyed sharing the story of
gravitational wave science and especially interacting virtually with the
bright young women and men who attended ISICS-9."
PROFESSOR DR. DAVID H. REITZE
Executive Director

* “Although people can talk about a Golden Age in literature or art or other
human endeavours as some time in the past, we are always currently in the
Golden Age of Science. We can do more now and realize how much more we have
to do than ever before. Exciting students and the public about the
possibilities ahead is important and a wonderful goal of the International
STEM & Innovation Colloquia Series (ISICS)”.
PROFESSOR DR. MARTIN CHALFIE
Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2008
Columbia University, New York, USA
* “A great audience with great questions”.
PROFESSOR DR. DAVID PATTERSON
ACM A.M. Turing Award 2017

University of California at Berkeley, USA
* “After exploring a bit on the web, I think ISICS is a wonderful program. The
importance of STEM is of course well-known throughout the world and is
emphasized by many government and educational programs. However, just stating
that Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics are important, can be
a bit dry and unexciting. I think the ISICS program is important because the
colloquium series helps students see that practitioners of STEM, real people,
find exciting and rewarding careers, where STEM is an important ingredient,
but the personal excitement, enjoyment, and satisfaction from their work
comes from the thrill of discovering, understanding, and explaining new
phenomena.”
