Benefits & Services

Every graduate of the University is a valued member of the alumni community.

You don’t need to join an alumni association, nor pay any fees. When you finish studying at the University you automatically become one of our alumni.

The University is committed to offering alumni services and benefits — a number of which are listed below. A full list can be found at the InTouch portal for alumni and friends.

The best way to ensure we keep you informed about alumni services and benefits relevant to you is to keep your contact details up to date — either contact the Engineering Advancement team directly or update your own details online through the InTouch Portal.

benefits and servicesAlumni Networks & Events

The Melbourne School of Engineering and the broader University provides opportunities for alumni to reconnect through a series of alumni reunions and other programs of events and activities exclusively for alumni, including some interstate and overseas.

Alumni living overseas can tap into the many networks which support more than 35,000 University of Melbourne graduates who live outside of Australia. Visit Global Alumni Networks for more information.

If you would like assistance to find a classmate or member of staff, we may be able to help you. Although privacy legislation prohibits us from passing on contact details without permission, we are more than happy to contact those people on your behalf and let them know you would like to get in touch!

For further information about finding a classmate or staff member, please contact the Engineering Advancement team.

Career Services and Professional Development

Alumni of the University are able to log on to the Careers Online Services to search for jobs, see upcoming career-related events, find volunteer opportunities and access further resources.

Graduates who completed within the last 12 months are also able to contact the Careers Consultant in the Melbourne School of Engineering for advice and assistance by phone +61 3 9035 6254 or email rgamble@unimelb.edu.au.

We know that many of our graduates are now employers themselves — you may be interested to view the Careers and Employment Services for Employers.

Access to Online Journals and Discounts

Whether you wish to research information for your current job, your role in the community or simply out of personal interest, we have launched a carefully-selected range of our most in-demand electronic databases for you to access.

By paying a fee, University of Melbourne alumni can access these journals for 12 months from the date of payment. After this time, the service will be reviewed to ensure it continues to meet alumni needs. Please visit University Library: Alumni.

Further Study & Alumni Discounts

Alumni interested in further study and professional development may like to see available course offerings within Engineering or across the University.

The University of Melbourne is offering its alumni a 20 percent discount on single subject study through its Community Access Program (CAP). For more information, visit InTouch: Future Study.

The online InTouch Portal for alumni and friends is the best way to connect with the University and other alumni and make sure they can stay in touch with you!
