Your experience makes you the ideal role model for our students – so why not pay us a visit, see what’s changed around campus, and share your knowledge and expertise at the same time? From professional mentoring to giving a guest lecture, or even something as simple as sharing your story to inspire the future of your industry, you’ve got a lot to offer.
If this is something that you would like to get involved in, we would love to hear from you. Please complete our alumni volunteer form.
Take a look at some of the things you can get involved with:
Our professional mentoring programme matches students and recent graduates with professionals from local businesses to support their transition between education and the world of work. With a minimum commitment of just six meetings a year, this is an invaluable experience and your chance to give something back to the University.
From providing advice on writing a CV and tips for attending interviews, to encouragement around networking and suggestions on professional etiquette, there are plenty of ways you can support our students and graduates as a mentor, helping them to get the best start in their careers.
If this sounds like something you’d like to be a part of, or if you want to find out more information about the scheme, complete our short form. Initial training and ongoing mentor support will be provided.
