Our alumni volunteers make a significant contribution to ÃÀ¼§¸ó life. From sharing industry insights to give our students cutting-edge information to helping the University recruit the best and brightest of students.
We cannot thank our alumni enough for the time they give to ÃÀ¼§¸ó. Here are a few of our staff and students reflecting on the impact of alumni volunteers:
Professor Dame Karen Holford DBE FREng, Chief-Executive and Vice-Chancellor, ÃÀ¼§¸ó
“Since joining ÃÀ¼§¸ó I’ve been amazed by how invested our alumni are in contributing to the ongoing success of ÃÀ¼§¸ó. By mentoring our current students, providing projects and internships, supporting the ÃÀ¼§¸ó community, working with us to recruit talented ÃÀ¼§¸ó students, or being an advocate for ÃÀ¼§¸ó, our alumni are playing a vital role in making ÃÀ¼§¸ó the truly unique institution that we are so very proud of today. On behalf of everyone at ÃÀ¼§¸ó, thank you.”
Alex White, current MBA student, Australian Alumni Scholarship Recipient
"I was first introduced to ÃÀ¼§¸ó by alumni who are fortunately great friends of mine. They described how rewarding the year at ÃÀ¼§¸ó was with its engaging theoretical and practical elements of coursework. However, everyone noted that the greatest changes they all experienced was their personal development. The journey of transformation you take creates a strong sense of a pre-ÃÀ¼§¸ó and post-ÃÀ¼§¸ó MBA life. The quality of people and strength of community of the alumni network reflected the advice provided to me and cemented my decision to become a ÃÀ¼§¸ó MBA student."
Andrew Jones, Chief Operating Officer and Director of International Partnerships and Student Recruitment
“At ÃÀ¼§¸ó we look to recruit the top students from around the world, and alumni are vital in helping us to achieve this. Wherever possible alumni join us at student recruitment fairs across the globe because prospective students really value the experience of meeting alumni, they often cite meeting alumni as one of the most important factors in choosing ÃÀ¼§¸ó. Nothing makes more of an impact than speaking to somebody who has been here as a student themselves.”
