So above was the email I recently received from Mahen. Being that we are the most senior batch in medicine now, I'm sure we have more than our share of input we would like to make in terms of improvements in the academic curriculum. Yes, you're right we won't be seeing the changes - but I reckon it is the very least we can do to try to help our current/future juniors. So if you have ANY FEEDBACK at all or any constructive criticism about IMU Medicine Curriculum, do send it to the batch email and I will compile it all and send it in a single email to SRC. Let your voice be heard! :-)

Regards,

Eldwin

Student Ambassador Auditions

Ever thought of becoming a student ambassador?
If you have, your opportunity is finally here! SSD and Student Ambassadors 2010 will be hosting an event to share with you what being a student ambassador is all about.
It will be held on the 18th of January 2011 from 5.30-6.30pm at SR4

I don’t want to leave you clueless, so here is a sneak preview of what a student ambassador does and the many benefits of signing up as one:
Student Ambassadors (SA) are a group of selected students who represent IMU in various activities, (Both in and out of IMU).
The SA liaise and interact with students, alumni, faculty, staff and even the public.
Our role is also to prepare and assist students in making the transition from the varsity life to a working one.

On top of having an impressive C.V and various other benefits, the student ambassador will receive FULLY PAID training sessions as part of the programme such as leadership camps, personal development, team-building activities and the list goes on.

I certainly hope that I have piqued your interest!
If you would like more information, a fully detailed information sheet is available at SAD.
Just look for Ms Aznah and grab a copy.
I am looking forward to seeing you there!
Until we meet, have a great week and Happy New Year!
