The Macao Polytechnic Institute (IPM, from the Portuguese acronym) will hold its annual Open Day this Saturday at its main campus in a bid to attract students to enroll in more than 20 undergraduate degree programs that it offers.
As part of the Open Day, the institute will host a series of activities for the general public to further understand IPM’s educational philosophy, teaching and research capabilities, and scientific and creative development.
It will also showcase its academic programs via various formats including lectures, demonstrations, talent show performances and booth games, according to a statement issued by IPM.
The Open Day will feature guided campus tours, undergraduate and postgraduate course presentations, entrance consultation services, scientific and creative experiences, physical fitness testing, art workshops, nursing operations, experimental demonstrations, skill performances and interaction, as well as library and exhibition visits.
In the 2020-2021 academic year, IPM is enrolling students in more than 20 undergraduate degree programs in seven major areas until January 17.
In addition, applications for nine postgraduate programs of the institute are also open for courses in computer applied technology, Portuguese studies, public policy, Chinese-Portuguese translation and interpreting, big data and the Internet of Things, business administration in gaming management, interdisciplinary arts, sports and physical education, and nursing.
Applications are open until February 28, 2020.
The graphic and installation design of the Open Day has been created by Au Chon Hin, an alumnus of IPM’s design program who has won the 17th Young Guns International Youth Design Award.
With the theme “The Gateway to the World opens with IPM”, the Open Day showcases the “vitality, enterprise and innovative features” of the alma mater. The 17th Young Guns International Youth Design Grand Prix attracted hundreds of participants from 45 countries. Au Chon Hin and former IPM graduate Si Nga Ian are the only entrants from Macau to have won the competition. LV
