We are launching a new programme for alumni

From this new academic year, we are kicking off an initiative aimed at developing collaboration with international graduates - which means you. Thanks to this newly-established programme and newsletter for alumni, you can stay in contact with Masaryk University and the people you met during your studies, keep up-to-date with what is happening, use the benefits of being an alumnus and get invitations to various events, such as the Homecoming which took place this September.

The focus is not only on full-degree alumni of Masaryk University but also former exchange students who spent part of their studies in Brno. The conditions are different, and the alumni card and benefits connected to it are only for full-degree alumni. However, we still want all of you to know about what is happening and to stay in touch with us so as to build a proper comMUNIty.

Check the alumni website for more detailed info regarding the benefits, alumni card and much more.
