SAN MARTIN DE PORRES UNIVERSITY ASSISTED EIGHT THOUSAND STUDENTS IN THE FAIR “EXPOUNIVERSIDAD 2010”

Approximately eight thousand people visited the stand of San Martin de Porres University in the Fair “Expo University 2010” that took place on June 16-19 in the premises of the Jockey Club of Peru. As it usually happens, the representatives of each USMP faculty offered a personalized attention to each of the visitors in order to give them the proper information regarding our educational offer.

For more comfort and better attention, the USMP Stand was divided into four areas: management area where information about Administration, Human Resources Management, Marketing and International Businesses Management was offered, besides information about the career of Accounting and Economy. This area also had the presence of the students of the Institute of Innovation and Promotion for the University Undertaking (IPPEU), who presented and explained the people there how USMP supports and incubates its business projects.

In the second area named “Health”, information about the careers of Human Medicine, Odontology, Nursing and Obstetrics was given. In order to offer a service for the future applicants of our university, the faculty of odontology placed in the USMP stand an odontological chair, where they offered free prophylaxis and teeth whitening to the students of fifth grade of secondary.

In the area of Engineering and Architecture, the representatives oriented the future engineers and architects about the careers of Computing and Systems Engineering, Civil Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Food Industry Engineering and Architecture. They also presented the Inka Root and line robots created by the FIA.

The careers of Communication Sciences, Tourism and Hotel Management, Psychology and Law were grouped in the Humanities area, where part of the gastronomic bibliographic production of our university was shown, besides some of the Law agreements of some of the most distinguished researchers.

During the first day of the fair Expo Universidad 2010, the players of the USMP club, Leao Butrón and Roberto Silva visited the USMP stand and took pictures with all the people that requested it.

One of the activities that captured the most attention of the future applicants was the interactive game that simulated the competition of three young people to enter the USMP. Taking into account the amount of university merchandising that was used as prizes for the winners (sport bottles, key holders, notepads and cell cases) we can estimate that during the four days, around 2 thousand students participated in this game. During the game, people, players as well as people watching, repeatedly heard the radio spot with the date of the Admission exam of the university.

In the last day of the fair, the Tuna of the Law Faculty gave the students the best of their repertoire and with their usual happiness grouped In the USMP stand tens of students who enjoyed their songs and dances.

The organization of the University participation in the Expo Universidad 2010 was the responsibility of the Office of Public Relations and Institutional Image, who were also responsible for the diffusion of the University among the students of the educational centers.
