砂拉越北部41所中学与马来西亚科廷大学签署合作备忘录，让学生更早接触STEM学习、高校环境及相关升学与就业方向。 合作包括到校推动科学、技术、工程与数学（STEM）活动，以及教师能力培训。符合现行条件的参与学校SPM优秀毕业生，也可角逐马来西亚科廷大学每年提供的卓越奖学金，每校最多5名。 备忘录于9月29日在美里一场教师会议上签署。报道未列出固定奖学金额，因此不能把名额上限理解为每名学生可获同一金额。 报道没有列出各校具体活动日期，也未公布固定奖学金额度；每校最多5人的名额并不代表学生已自动取得奖项。学生与家长可留意各校后续公布的STEM活动安排及当年申请条件，再判断哪些机会适用于自己。

Forty-one secondary schools in northern Sarawak have signed a partnership with Curtin University Malaysia aimed at widening students’ access to STEM learning and university pathways. The agreement links the schools with the Miri campus for STEM programmes and teacher development, giving pupils earlier exposure to science, technology, engineering and mathematics, as well as higher-education and career options. The university also offers annual Excellence Awards to up to five eligible high-performing SPM graduates from each participating school, subject to its current terms. The memorandum was signed at a teachers’ conference in Miri on Sept 29. The reported opportunities are part of the partnership; the university has not announced a single fixed award amount in the coverage.

On a rainy Kuching afternoon, I would put Sarawak Science Centre (SSCiEX) on the Petra Jaya route—not as a monument to photograph, but as a place to test whether curiosity survives beyond a selfie.

It opened to the public on 30 July 2026 after its official opening the day before, turning years of planning into an operating learning venue. This is a new institution still finding its rhythm, not a settled century-old museum. [image: 1788248148842-03-resized.webp] Source: SSCiEX official website The point is to touch, test and ask. Allow 1.5–2.5 hours, more if a programme is running. Families, school-age visitors and curious adults will find a reason to stay; visitors seeking quiet heritage rooms or a ten-minute landmark may not.

Confirm current hours, tickets, programmes and last admission before leaving: a new venue may adjust operations, while events or maintenance can change access. Leave a traffic buffer around Jalan Stadium. [image: 1788248151102-05-resized.webp] Source: SSCiEX official website

古晋的砂拉越科学中心，将成为学生和老师学习 STEM 的新据点。 [image: 1785373547375-science_centre_20260730.jpg] 位于古晋的砂拉越科学中心（SSCiEX），接下来会作为资源中心，协助老师教学，也让学生通过互动工具接触课本以外的科学学习。 砂教育、创新及人才发展部长拿督斯里罗伦沙加（Roland Sagah Wee Inn）表示，中心会让年轻人接触机器人、编程、生物科技和再生能源等领域。 为什么值得关注 对学校来说，这不只是多一个参观地点。它可以让科学课更接近现实，也让学生更早看到未来行业需要的技能。 这个中心也配合砂拉越 PCDS 2030 方向，希望培养更多本地 STEM 人才，推动创新经济。 地点： 古晋，砂拉越 详情： 砂拉越科学中心将支援老师、学生和公众 STEM 学习 新闻来源： DayakDaily 你觉得呢？

Sarawak Science Centre is being positioned as a hands-on STEM hub for students and teachers across the state. [image: 1785373547375-science_centre_20260730.jpg] The Sarawak Science Centre (SSCiEX) in Kuching is meant to support classroom learning with interactive tools, teacher resources and practical science exposure beyond textbooks. Education, Innovation and Talent Development Minister Dato Sri Roland Sagah Wee Inn said the centre will connect young Sarawakians with areas like robotics, coding, biotechnology and renewable energy. Why it matters For students, this is not just another building. It gives schools a place to bring science lessons closer to real life. The centre is also part of Sarawak's PCDS 2030 push to grow local STEM talent and support an innovation-driven economy.

[image: 1780812153192-ssciex-aerial.jpeg] Sarawak's first interactive science centre opens Phase 1 on July 29, featuring animatronic dinosaurs, a mirror maze, water play zone and more. Located at Jalan Stadium on a 10.97-acre site, the Sarawak Science Centre Interactive Experience (SSCiEX) will welcome visitors starting July 29. Phase 1 covers the Ground Floor and Level 1 galleries, while Level 2 and 3 will follow later. What's Inside Visitors can explore galleries covering physics, engineering, earth science, biology and technology. Key attractions include: Animatronic dinosaur gallery 🦕 Water play zone Mirror maze Forces, light and sound exhibits The centre also offers daily science theatre shows, live demonstrations, lab sessions for schools, a Maker's Space, community farming zones and an on-site hostel for visiting school groups. Background The project was approved by the Sarawak government in 2019. Planning started in 2022 with Singapore Science Centre helping develop the Strategic Master Plan, incorporating Sarawak's natural environment and cultural identity into the visitor experience. Construction progressed in 2024, with exhibit fabrication and installation in 2025. This is a Sarawak government initiative under the Post-Covid-19 Development Strategy (PCDS) 2030, aimed at nurturing STEM interest through interactive learning.
