Alumni relations

The university’s alumni are its former students and its graduates. They are significant members of the university’s wider community and frequently continue to play an active role and take an interest in university activities.

Alumni generally identify with their professional group i.e. school or clinical school or year of graduation. There are established alumni links in the schools of Medicine, Dentistry and Physiotherapy. Other schools are investigating development of their alumni relationships.

Alumni may assist the university with:

• advocacy, influence, networking and communication – they can be the organisation's greatest ambassadors;
• involvement in university community (eg. mentor, volunteer, attending events, providing community views);
• financial support including bequests.
