Are you getting bored of your summer holiday? Do you want to do something fun? If your answer is yes, then we have good news for you! The University of Macau (UM) recently launched the Data and Application Programming Interface (API) Portal. On the portal, you can access data collected from the campus, including information about UM’s courses and activities, as well as the reservation status of the Computer Room. More data will be available in the future, including job openings for students and the availability of car park spaces. 

The data is available free of charge to UM faculty members, staff members, and students. To access the data, log into the portal at https://data.umac.mo with the UMPass account. 

In addition, the Centre for Innovation and Centre for Teaching and Learning Enhancement are preparing for the first Hackathon at UM. Winners will receive support in launching their apps. Those who are interested in participating in Hackathon may find useful information on the API Portal. 

For more information or to subscribe to the API, please visit https://data.umac.mo/quickstart/. For enquiries, please call 8822 8500 or email to icto.ims@um.edu.mo.
