Chancellor meets alumni in Singapore
More than 300 alumni and friends of the University recently gathered in Singapore to meet with University Chancellor Mr Ian Renard and to hear from Australia's High Commissioner to Singapore, Mr Miles Kupa, himself an alumnus of the University.
Alumni included recent graduates through to a gentleman in his 80s. There was a very pleasant and convivial atmosphere as alumni mingled with old friends and met up with the large number of University staff who were in attendance.
The reception was part of a program of events run by the University during the weekend of the 21st and 22nd of October incorporating an Open Day devoted to promoting 'The Melbourne Experience' and a networking reception with Singapore employers, designed to assist recent graduates of the University.
More than 35 University staff, incuding a number of Deans and members of senior executive assisted in making the weekend one of the biggest international events staged by the University.
