Gatherings for international graduate students!
UMPA is encouraging small community meetings for international graduate students who would like to meet friends from the same home-country studying at the University of Melbourne.
If you would like to start or join a club with members from your country, please email us and let us know. We will support the group set-up and make you feel at home.
Remember that it’s your involvement that really makes the magic, so please get involved!
Please email me international at umpa.unimelb.edu.au by May 11th, 2008 with your idea for a group you are interested in forming or joining (for example Chinese, Malaysian, Indian etc.) .
All suggestions welcome!
