The “Giving Back to the Alma Mater” Alumni Activity Series organized by the University of Macau (UM) will take place from 17 September to 18 September. The activity aims to bring together UM alumni to let them catch up on old times.

This is the first alumni-themed event in UM’s history, and there will be numerous activities. On 17 September (Friday), UM Alumnus Dr. Anthony Lau will make a donation to the University of Macau Development Foundation, with the hope of advancing UM’s development in teaching and research and contributing to UM’s goal of becoming a world-class university. A cheque presentation ceremony will be held at 15:00 on the same day in Room HG03 in the Ho Yin Convention Centre at UM, to be followed by a talk by Dr. Lau, who will share with the students his many years of experiences in the logistics industry.

On 18 September (Saturday), there will be even more activities, including the launch ceremony for the Alumni Day, the Scholarship and “Rector's Honor List” Presentation Ceremony, the inauguration ceremony for the Peer Support Programme Alumni Association, sports competitions, and a photography competition which aims to let UM alumni capture the memorable moments on their cameras. There will also be game and exhibition booths on the campus to create an atmosphere of festivity. The university will also arrange dedicated personnel to provide guided campus tours for guests.

There will also be an alumni gathering and a dinner to let alumni meet with their former teachers. During the dinner, current students of UM will give performances in honour of their senior schoolmates. Those who are interested may call us at 83974384 or email us at alummi.enquiry@um.edu.mo by 9 September for enrollment.

UM has produced approximately 20,000 graduates since its foundation in 1981. We look forward to meeting alumni of UM and alumni of the University of East Asia (predecessor of UM) as well as their friends and family members next weekend.
