If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together. - African proverb
Happy to have you join the Faculty of Engineering Alumni Association, Mona Chapter. Through tests, exams, labs and projects we’ve grown, becoming a family that supports each other. Through interviews, ventures, more projects and vast networking we’ll continue to support each other. We are here because we did it before and we want to do it again. Together we will grow.
At the end of the academic year for final year students, Alumnae are invited to join the Association. Every graduate of the Faculty of Engineering, UWI Mona is an alumna. The process to join the prominent Faculty of Engineering Alumnae Association are as follows:
It’s that simple! Subsequently, we encourage you to join our bi-annual meetings, our hosted events and engage in our discussions via our socials.
Of course, you can. Local or international, once you have a few hours to spare a month and a passion for your faculty, that is all we need. Every individual matters.
Two words, Four syllables – SHOW INTEREST. You can be a part of the change as early as the beginning of your membership. Be vigilant for when the nomination process begins and feel free to ask questions. Each executive body has a tenure of 2 years.
As an alumna, you are being given the opportunity to become a part of an elite global community of successful individuals. Your Engineering degree can open doors and help you to progress in your career. Through fellowship, we can help you to maintain the close friendships that you made while at UWI as well as expand your network and forge new relationships through our planned events. Lest we forget, you know what they say – An engineer always has a special trick up their sleeve, so you never know what else is waiting for you.
As one who has walked the journey, we are aware that it is not for the faint hearted. We are currently developing a relationship with our ‘little sibling’ – Mona Engineering Society (MES) – and are actively assisting to aid in the development of our future engineers.
