Alkayet enjoys attending networking and volunteer events, watching English Premier League football, swimming, and traveling with his family. These activities allow him to stay engaged, active, and connected with people from different backgrounds.

When speaking with prospective students, many ask about campus life at Macquarie University, particularly about the student societies and clubs. They are eager to learn how they can get involved, make friends, and build connections beyond just their studies. The one thing that surprises most people about Macquarie? Many are not aware of the MQ Incubator, which is designed to foster innovation and support students in developing their entrepreneurial ideas, which many do not expect from a university setting.

His other advice to prospective students is to consider South-western suburbs like Bankstown, Lidcombe, and Liverpool for accommodation options. These areas offer great amenities, diverse communities, and are relatively affordable housing options compared to other parts of the city.

Alkayet is currently living in Dhaka and is a proud father of a wonderful daughter and son.
