Master's Social Night
2019
September
Classmates are future industry peers, but we are often so caught up in our studies that we do not take time out to socialise and get to know our peers.
In Master's Social Night, students had the chance to grow their peer to peer network over a casual drink, with students across the MSD disciplines including Architecture, Construction, Landscape Architecture, Planning & Property. With over 200 students in attendance from across the MSD cohorts, our first Master’s Social Night was a hit!
