Alumni
A network of opportunities
At Bristol Business School we have a network of alumni all over the world and want to stay in touch with our students long after they have graduated, to provide them with opportunities to build contacts and for continuing professional development, as well as other benefits and services. We really value your continued input into the School and there are lots of ways for you to get involved in supporting current students and recent graduates of the Business School.
We are always looking for opportunities to improve the service we offer to our alumni and work more closely with you, so ideas, feedback and suggestions are very welcome.
Where are you now?
Help us to help you to network by keeping us up-to-date with your contact details and by putting us back in touch with 'lost' alumni for whom we no longer have current details. E-mail alumni@uwe.ac.uk or call +44(0)117 32 82997.
Keeping in touch
If you are a former BBS student and would like to, please update your details with the alumni network making sure you sign up to 'University Updates' and 'Forthcoming Lectures and Seminars'.

alumni which not only give you the opportunity to hear from eminent
