If you’re graduated last week (congratulations, you’re a #LivUniGrad!), you are now part of a global family of 232,000 University of Liverpool alumni.

Although you’ll be missed, we want you to know that graduation isn’t a goodbye. We’re here for you in the future too and would love to stay in touch. Here’s just some things you should know about:

Your alumni network

Take a look at the Class of 2020 webpages to find out more about your alumni network and how you can access a range of benefits from our Careers & Employability service.

Liverpool Connect is our online networking platform, offering the Class of 2020 a great opportunity to connect with graduates who are willing to share their career insights, journeys after graduation and offer workplace experiences through informal online mentoring.

Through the Liverpool Connect platform you can:

  • Search an online directory of global alumni professionals
  • Make e-networking connections for informal mentoring & career insights
  • Access career development resources and free online events
  • Join community groups to connect around share interests.

More than 1,700 graduates have already registered to offer their advice to students like you.

Whether you are looking for a mentor, or hoping to give back your time by volunteering your skills and expertise as a mentor, Liverpool Connect can offer you the opportunity you need.

Access careers support

No matter what stage you’re at in your graduate career, we are here to help. You can continue to access careers support as you progress through your early career.
