Today, the outcome of research universities and institutions, employees and project leaders are evaluated by their outcome. This outcome is measured in “Impact”. One of the elements to create impact and, of course, to get research published and discussed is writing a scientific paper for an ISI journal. INSTeG offers regular workshops for interested scientists on impact paper writing. The workshop provides participants with insights on designing a manuscript, writing the impact paper, selecting the appropriate journal and important facts that are considered by journal editors and reviewers, whether to accept a paper or not.

As the main focus of INSTeG is to enhance research activities in UTM and thus increase the number of publication, we are currently not offering an undergraduate program. The students working at INSTeG follow a Master or PhD program supervised by INSTeG staff. At present, there are 15 master students and 10 PhD students. These research students are postgraduate students of the Faculty of Geoinformation and Real Estate.
Their topics cover the following research areas;
- GPR Research.
- Seagrass Biomass from Satellite Remote Sensing.
- Geology studies and lithological mapping using ASTER and Landsat TM data.
- Calibration Of Ground-Based Radar (GR) In Order To Rainfall Forecasting.
- Water Yield.
- Cloud classification for rainfall estimation.
- Greenhouse Gases Modelling.
- Integration of Remote Sensing and Ggeographic Information System Techniques for Optimal Food Industry Site Selection.
- Streamflow modeling using remote sensing and GIS.
- NASA Satellite Derived Parameters for Air Quality Monitoring.
- Bio-optical Algorithm.
- Biological production in the Sulu Sea
- Algorithm modification for Chlorophyll-a detection.
- Urban Runoff.
- Local Knowledge and Remote Sensing.
- Ecosystem Services.
- Forest Water Yield.
- Flood Risk Mapping.
- New Algorithm of Seagrass Mapping and Seagrass Biomass.
INSTeG is looking for post-doctoral scientists to work as researcher under the supervision of and in cooperation with our staff. We are encouraging research students who are interested to do an internship at INSTeG to contact us.

UTM is a Research University with highly specialized experts in many different fields of science. Experts need to communicate their special findings either to other experts or to professionals in other disciplines, who might be responsible for administration, approbation of fund or for applications within the industry. In any case these experts should be able to present their knowledge in an appropriate way.
For this they need skills to explain information efficiently and in a professional manner as well as in a non technical way. Presentation Skills have to be learned and trained. Again and again the presenter has to improve his/her own ability to deliver findings at any time without stress and in a understandable and comprehensible way.
INSTeG offers special presentation courses and workshops with learning by doing for participants to become a professional presenter. These trainings include the planning of a presentation related to the targeted objective, the creation of slides and the decision, with which information the audience should come away. The training includes aspects on body language as well as the pronunciation and the comprehensibility and audibility of English.

To be able to enhance own awareness, to develop own potential and to grow as an authority are major aims of UTM for their members.Personal Development means to grow from a follower to a leader, to a person with self-confidence, with self-responsibility and with a natural intrinsic motivation to create an outcome of a very high quality to contribute to the public whole. Personal Development needs time – and input.
INSTeG offers workshops, courses and training to enhance consciousness. The participants learn to become an authority not only in the narrow field of expertise but as a personality in general, too. A growing Research University needs Experts, who can stand in an international comparison – not only as one track specialists but as Experts with self-confidence and wisdom.
