Explore - Alumni online series

When our paths take an unexpected turn, it reminds us that the journey can be just important as the destination.

The University of Tasmania alumni series Explore provides opportunities for advancement and inspiration.

We'd love to know if there are any topics you would like us to help you explore. Or perhaps you are an alumni member who would like to offer your expertise. Please contact the Alumni team via:
email alumni.office@utas.edu.au or;
phone +61 3 6324 3052.

To learn more about Alumni opportunities and events, follow us on Facebook or LinkedIn, or subscribe to Alumni and Friends eNews.

One of the greatest advantages of being a member of the alumni community is the ability to tap into a group of diverse, interesting and influential individuals with an immense global impact.

Our webinars offer an exclusive opportunity to connect with your peers and find among them innovators, thought leaders and perhaps even potential collaborators.

The alumni series is tailored to your needs. You will receive invitations to take part in engaging webinars, as well as the opportunity to listen back at your leisure.
