Alumni relations at graduation
Graduation doesn’t mean goodbye, it’s the start of a lifelong connection with Sheffield. Once you graduate, you automatically join a global community of over 350,000 alumni (former students) ready to support your next steps.
Come and meet us at graduation!
The Alumni Relations team will be around all week to welcome you into the Sheffield alumni family with free Sheffield souvenirs, selfie frames for the perfect pic, and a chance to tell us what you need as you start this exciting new chapter.
