Career roundtable
Students and alumni from the School of Science connected at a roundtable organised to
give students the opportunity to learn about the careers that their seniors have
successfully pursued after graduation. The event aimed to provide students with career
inspiration and the excitement to explore their own career options.
Business alumni Christmas brunch
Insta-elections, youth,
politics and social media
Malaysia held its 14th General Election
early in 2018, and politics took centre
stage in discussions among the public.
Alumni of the School of Social Arts and
Sciences organised a public forum in
response, featuring panellists Dr
Pauline Leong from Sunway University;
Fahmi Fadzil, Communications Director
of Keadilan; and Zaidel Baharuddin,
Special Officer to the Deputy Minister of
Home Affairs. The forum examined the
strategies of major parties in dealing
with youth apathy as well as the
challenges of campaigning in the digital
era within the Malaysian context.
The Monash Malaysia Business Alumni Chapter (MMBAC) ended the year on a high
note – with a Christmas brunch at Eatropica, where they introduced the new MMBAC
committee for 2019. The members had also met for a Merdeka lunch in August and
celebrated the nation’s independence day with a delightful spread of Malaysian cuisine.
Sporting events
Year-end celebration
We marked yet another great year with our alumni who returned to campus for a
relaxing evening of good food and entertainment, all while catching up with fellow
alumni just before the graduation weekend.
With regularly organised sporting
activities, our alumni are able to get
involved in various events ranging from
bowling and go-kart challenges to
professional training in badminton and
running. Monash has also partnered
with KOA Fitness to host workouts
conducted by certified instructors.
