Welcome Home 2018 (21 April 2018)

Whether you're returning home, relocating or just passing through, we invite you to join fellow alumni and members of The University of Melbourne Alumni Association in Malaysia for a celebration of our global alumni community and hear a panel discussion with three fantastic Melbourne alumni (see bios below).

We encourage valued existing members of the Malaysian alumni community to join us, meet new and old friends and help welcome recent and relocating graduates to our city. For new graduates, this event offers the potential for career support, making new connections and professional development and networking opportunities. 

It’s a great excuse to get together and we hope you can make it.
