new alumni ambassadors to boost alumni engagement! 

smu women alumni group celebrates motherhood!  learn more "work-life balance" from a seasoned professional 
The SMU Alumni Ambassadors are specially appointed alumni leaders assisting the SMU Office of Alumni Relations (OAR) and the SMU Alumni Association (SMUAA) in fostering closer connections with our alumni. They support one of the strategic thrusts in SMU’s Vision 2015, providing inputs on strategies to build a vibrant and cohesive alumni community. If you have a passion in volunteering and are committed to supporting the University in building a strong global alumni community, we welcome you to join us. Please submit your application by 11th January 2017. Calling all mothers and mums-to-be! The SMU Women Alumni Group has a treat for you at ”SMU Mama Meet Up” on 7th January. Give yourself a break, meet fellow mothers and women alumni, and learn easy yoga and self-massage techniques to relax and de-stress. Pamper yourself also with treats from OPI and Sally Hansen whilst you reconnect with yourself as an individual and with fellow alumni. Share the joys of motherhood, childcare arrangements, and life beyond motherhood. Yes, it’s time to kick off those shoes and enjoy a morning of fun and laughter!

The 3rd instalment of the Professional Development Series returns on 12th January with the topic: "Work Life Balance - Myth or Reality?". Ruth Chiang who successfully built the reputation of SMU graduates amongst employers during SMU’s pioneering years, will share tips and strategies on how personal responsibilities can be managed alongside work responsibilities without affecting productivity at the workplace. Ruth was Director of Career Services from SMU inception till 2011. She currently serves as Head of Corporate & Community Alignment at SMU's Centre for Management Practice.
