A place to stay connected to your university for inspiration, professional development and learning.

One community. Infinite possibilities.

You are part of a thriving global alumni network of individuals. They each share your passion for Newcastle, your experience of being a student and your aspirations as a graduate.

This exclusive network offers you access to a wealth of professional and personal development opportunities and connections throughout your life.

Make the most of your community by attending our events and keeping up with our regular news and communications. You can also take advantage of the benefits and resources on offer to you as a Newcastle graduate.

 

All your hard work at university has paid off, and you’re now the proud owner of a Newcastle University degree – congratulations! To help you transition from student to graduate life, we spoke with Class of 2023 alumna Sara Kozakova, who graduated with an MA in Cross-Cultural Communication and Media Studies in December 2023, to get her top tips.

Some key tips:

  • Do what you love: You don’t have to separate your interests and passions from your work, find what motivates you and pursue it.
  • Networking is important: If you dont have experience in a sector you want to grow professionally in, networking can be a useful tool to open doors for you.
