The 100th anniversary of the National Pingtung University of Science and Technology (NPUST) marks a significant milestone in its history, showcasing a century of contributions to education and community development. The celebration included a grand opening ceremony that highlighted the university’s achievements and its commitment to sustainable development and interdisciplinary education. The IAVT (International Animal Veterinary Technology) department actively participated in the centennial celebrations, contributing to the university’s vibrant atmosphere. Our department was present at the opening ceremony, which set a festive tone for the events that followed. Throughout the anniversary celebrations, we organized various activities aimed at introducing our IAVT program to visitors.
At our booth, we engaged visitors with hands-on experiences that showcased the practical aspects of our program. Notably, we assisted students in capping and labeling vaccine bottles, which not only demonstrated our technical skills but also educated attendees about important veterinary practices. This interactive experience was well-received, with many visitors expressing enthusiasm for the opportunity to wear lab coats and pose for pictures alongside lab equipment.
These activities were instrumental in fostering connections within our department. They provided an excellent platform for our members to bond over shared experiences while simultaneously promoting our program to a wider audience. The positive feedback from visitors indicated that our efforts were successful in raising awareness about the IAVT program and its relevance in today’s veterinary landscape.
In summary, the 100th anniversary of NPUST was not just a celebration of the past but also an opportunity for our IAVT department to shine, connect with the community, and inspire future students. The events reinforced our commitment to education and collaboration within the veterinary field, ensuring that we continue to contribute positively to both our university and society at large.
