About:
Established over 25 years ago, the UK Alumni Association brings together over 2,000 UK based alumni. We focus on providing opportunities for UK alumni to network, enjoy, learn and continue to engage with the university. Our reinvigorated committee is focusing complementing the activities that the Univesrity delivers directly in the UK (eg Vice Chancellor and Dean’s events). We aim to showcase the achievements of Melbourne's alumni community.
See events soon to be hosted by the UK Alumni Association here.
