Partner with your home department

Make a direct impact in your home away from home! Departments and programs offer alumni several meaningful ways to get involved. The most common and impactful opportunities include sharing your career story and insights as a panelist or guest speaker, mentoring students one-on-one or in small groups to help them navigate their paths, and lending your real-world experience through resume reviews and mock interviews.

If you are interested in partnering with your home department or program, please fill out the volunteer interest form, and we’ll help you get connected.
