News and events from the Alumni Association

Wishing you a warm welcome from the University of Brighton Alumni Association!

It’s that bittersweet time of year again where we say goodbye to over 5,000 of our students as they finish their studies with us and we send them off in style at the graduate celebrations in The Dome. We’re sure you will join us in wishing the Class of 2012 all the best as they join our worldwide network of over 100,000 alumni.

We realise it is not possible or convenient for all of our alumni to return to our careers events, which is why we are delighted to bring them to you. Please make use of our free webinars and share the link with other alumni. If you are job-seeking, do take advantage of our Graduate Summer School.

We are now recruiting for our award-winning Momentum mentoring scheme. If you could offer your professional expertise to current students on a one-to-one basis, please get in touch.
