This year was packed with so many amazing events, from social to professional ones, that made it a memorable one. So, let’s take a trip down memory lane and recap several highlights of this extremely tumultuous past year! 💜💜💜
SEMESTER ONE
O-Fest

What better way to spend the beginning of semester 1 than enjoying a night filled with games?! Well, MMSS’ Games Night was a great way to have some fun whilst making new friends with MMSS!
Sneakers on the Street
This year, MMSS introduced a new and exciting event, Sneakers on the Street! It was the best way to meet new friends and just a great way to enjoy a night out by moving between some awesome bars!
LinkedIn Live
Alongside the Monash Graduate Development team, MMSS delivered a masterclass to teach you everything about LinkedIn. The night was filled with all the tips and tricks needed to make the most of your LinkedIn profile.
Corporate Cocktails
MMSS’ Corporate Cocktails was the perfect event that mixed networking with open opportunities for students. This sold out event was a great chance to receive insight and explore the professional world through leading Australian and global companies.
CAS Camp ft MMSS
The CAS Camp featuring MMSS was a great way to have new experiences, memories and laughs with new friends!
White Night
Voted BEST EVENT for 7 year now, White Night is the go to event! There is no better way to party than with MMSS in white outfits! The night was one to remember with music, fun and dancing all night long!
Industry Insights: Behind Market Research
To explore the world of marketing, MMSS’ Industry Insights revealed what it’s like to have a career in Market Research! It was the perfect opportunity to gain tips, advice, and knowledge from an incredible panel with Fiftyfive5, TheLab, MDI-Global and Neuro-Insight!

This year MMSS participated in the Wings for Life World Run! With the largest university team in Australia, the Monash University team ran to raise money and bring more awareness around Spinal Cord Research.
SEMESTER TWO
MMSS Games Night
To kick off the start of a brand new semester, MMSS brought back its highly entertaining games night! There was no other way to start semester 2 than hanging out and playing some exhilarating online games!
L’Oreal Couture Case Competition
This interactive team-based Case Competition was a great place to learn and test your abilities to solve business challenges with mentorship from marketing and commercial experts! One of our very own teams made it all the way to the finals too!
In Conversations with Kraft Heinz
Returning from last year, In Conversations with Kraft Heinz was an engaging and insightful opportunity to delve into one of the largest food and beverage companies out there! The event was filled with deep value, thoughtful conversations, and stories from experienced professionals.
Industry Insights: Marketing Can Take You Anywhere
Industry Insights made its second return this year, this time adventuring in all the places marketing can take you! With a wide variety of panelists from PACCAR, Sports Performance Tracking and Sanikleen Group, the night brought valuable intel and inspiration for your future marketing career.
Mock Assessment Centre: MMSS x MASA
With MASA, MMSS brought a great event filled with networking with the addition of a Mock Assessment Centre! This opportunity was the best mashup of learning your career’s needs and developing your own assessment skills!
Careers with Peers: Networking @ Night
Careers with Peers brought you the ultimate occasion to network with a variety of different companies! Students had the chance to ask representatives about their career journeys, career options and helpful advice to propel your own career!
AGM
Presented as an opportunity to reflect on the past year, and look forward to the future, tears were shed as the 2021 committee bid their farewell. We then welcomed our new committee and teams for 2022!
MMSS Alumni Drinks
A fantastic chance for MMSS committee members, past and present, to come together! It’s the event to commemorate MMSS’ 50th anniversary and reminisce about your time being part of MMSS!
MMSS Ball
Whilst we weren’t able to hold our 50th Anniversary Ball in the end and see all your wonderful faces, rest assured that we will be back better than ever for 2022! We hope to see you once again at our 2022 Ball where we’ll all be able to (finally!) party all night long!
We would like to thank everyone who helped make MMSS’ 50th anniversary a huge success! The year was full of new experiences and memories and we are so grateful to our Purple Fam! To those who came along to any of our MMSS’ events, we loved having you and can’t wait to see you again next year!
Stay tuned for more career opportunities, networking, and partying in 2022 💜
