Your relationship with Warwick doesn't end at graduation. There are many ways for you to get involved with the University in the years after you leave.
"As a Warwick graduate and a teacher, I am a strong believer in the importance of education. Higher education should not just be reserved for the privileged few, but for anyone who is capable. This is why I have decided to give something back to Warwick. Over the last year, I have begun to support the University’s scholarship programme so that other students can enjoy the same educational experience that I benefited from during my time at Warwick."

Some things for Warwick alumni to do:
|

Support the 50 Forward campaign
As Warwick approaches its fiftieth anniversary in 2015 it is well placed to nurture the next generation of global decision makers and to identify solutions to some of the pressing challenges confronting the world. The support of alumni will enable it to do just that.

Offer an internship to a Warwick student
Here at Warwick, we place a lot of importance on our continued relationships with alumni. Currently, of 22,500 students, 6,000 are from overseas and as a University with a worldwide profile, we are determined to add further to the international experience that students get when studying at Warwick.

Get in touch with friends, former classmates and other Warwick alumni
We regularly receive requests from former students who want to get in contact with friends from Warwick. To assist graduates who want to find friends and former classmates, the alumni association has developed a find a friend service. This service is only available to alumni of the University of Warwick (and predecessor institutions).

Become a Warwick volunteer
As a Warwick alumnus volunteer, you can make a real difference. You can get involved with the University and its students in many positive and interesting ways. You can share your knowledge, expertise and experiences in ways that benefit both the University and the current generation of students. The challenge for you is to work out where you can have most impact.
|
|
Become an alumni ambassador
The University wants to maintain a close relationship with alumni living and working overseas and to help them foster relationships with other Warwick graduates in their area. Our Warwick alumni ambassadors are at the core of this work. They plan and host events for fellow alumni, serve as contact points for students in their area interested in Warwick and assist faculty and students travelling or studying abroad.

|
Become a career mentor
At some time during their career, most people need some advice. Unfortunately it can be hard to know who to contact. Happily though, as part of a worldwide Warwick graduate community there are often people working in the same field as you who can help.
