Hi guys! I am Vivian. As your alumni officer, I will do my best to connect the alumni with the current Malaysian students. My main event is in September – the Alumni Dinner whereby you’ll get to meet, connect and rub shoulders with the alumni of University of Cambridge; some of which are really successful and influential people in Malaysia! Duty aside, I treat CUMAS as my own family and a family in need is a family in deed. So, if you have any troubles or just wish to talk, you can always approach me. 🙂

Graduate Representative - Ainul N Hanafiah Graduate Representative: AINUL NADHIRAH HANAFIAH PhD Public Health and Primary Care in Lucy Cavendish
graduates@cumas.org
If I get £1 for every surprised reaction to admitting I’m not an undergraduate, I’d probably be able to fund myself for a luxurious holiday in Malta now! Jokes aside, it’s been a great albeit challenging year of PhD at Cambridge. Couldn’t have survived it without the regular dose of Malaysian food and friends. I reckon we all need a bit of home every now and then, am I right? As such, I hope to bring more of the postgraduates together to participate in CUMaS and enjoy each other’s company over the events organised by the society. Truly, we are all battling the same fight of going through this intense yet amazing institution. So let’s do it together. Malaysia boleh kan? ;P
