As you come to the end of the academic year, and potentially the end of your University career, it’s safe to say you’ll be feeling a real mixture of emotions. As you finish your final assignments and return your library books, it’s hard not to feel like this is an ending – however, it’s only the beginning! Whether you’re going on to complete a PhD, or preparing to embark on an exciting career, remember that whatever you’re doing next and wherever you’re going, you’ll always belong to The University of Manchester community.
When you graduate you’ll officially become a member of the University alumni, and join one of the largest global alumni communities in the world. As an alumnus of The University of Manchester you can stay connected with friends, classmates and the University itself, regardless of where you are in the world. Stay updated by email, and if you’re really missing Oxford Road you can always come back and attend University events such as the annual Cockcroft-Rutherford Lecture, or inspire a new generation of students by speaking at an alumni event!
There are so many ways to stay in touch and be part of the University community. So whatever your next chapter entails, this isn’t goodbye, but see you soon.
“I bring my past, I bring my future, I bring my rights and I bring my song,
I stand atop the University of Manchester, we belong here, we belong”
