As from February 2024, the Marketing, Communications & Alumni Office with the invaluable help of the University’s Department of History, embarked on a journey to understand better the origins of what ultimately made the University of Malta what it is today.
The twist was that MCAO engaged the help of students enrolled in the History courses to give out that information in a condensed and interesting way.
Below are the first four episodes of the series titled ‘UM in History’, which you can follow at your leisure:
