The Faculty of Business recently held the "2023 FCG Alumni and Students Webinar", and invited alumni from four Bachelor's degree programs to give sharings, including: Cadiz, an alumnus of the Marketing Program (working in the banking industry); Anson, an alumnus of the Accounting Program (currently working as the Accounting Manager of a Gaming company and founder of the Taiwanese catering brands "Katsu Noodles" and "Macchi Noodle"); Sun, an alumnus of the Management Program (working in the banking industry) and Tiffany, an alumnus of the E-commerce Program (working in the Morningstar Fund, will study a master’s degree in the University of Hong Kong soon).

In order to make the sharing of alumni more targeted, the Faculty also invited one current student from each Bachelor's degree program to join the webinar. They asked the alumni questions that the current students were interested in after the sharing by the alumni, and the alumni will answer them. During the nearly two-hour activity, the four alumni gave many valuable experiences and sharings to the younger students, including their experiences of university life, work, start-up, higher degree application, applying what they learned to their work, work-life balance, and graduation thesis preparation, etc..  The student participants listened attentively and asked many specific questions, such as which software is better to learn, how to learn Python, and so on. The alumni answered one by one.

In his sharing, alumnus Anson specifically mentioned that he found it difficult to learn English when he first came to MPU, but he insisted on reading the original English textbook page by page. At first, there were many new words on each page that needed to be looked up in the dictionary, but he persisted and gradually needed less  help from the dictionaries, and in Year 4 he almost didn't need to look up dictionaries when reading textbooks. In her sharing, alumnus Tiffany specifically mentioned that she participated in nearly a hundred extracurricular academic lectures, company visits and other activities organized by the university. She felt that these activities opened her horizons and felt that they were helpful for her current work and future study.  She even said emotionally in the sharing: Without MPU, she couldn’t have got the job at Morning Star, nor the offer of Master Program at HKU. The webinar was open to all students of Faculty of Business, and they could choose to participate independently. Students could participate in a part and then leave, or they could choose to participate in the latter part.

 This activity attracted more than 30 students to participate. The Faculty of Business insists on strengthening the connection between current students and alumni, and plans to hold various exchange activities on a regular basis.
