Get involved

“...adopt as your fundamental creed that you
will equip yourself for life, not solely for your
own benefit but for the benefit of the whole
community.” Sir John Monash

Our approach to alumni volunteering is
inspired by Sir John’s philosophy. 

Our volunteer program provides you
with opportunities to challenge yourself and
make the most of your abilities.

In giving your time, expertise or financial
support, you can gain the satisfaction that
comes from helping other members of the
Monash community including fellow alumni,
students and the University alike.

Be an ambassador. Get involved!

Our alumni volunteers are our
ambassadors.

They contribute to the University by giving
their expertise, time, or financial support.

By telling their stories. we celebrate our
alumni volunteers and the impact they
have on the University and within their
communities.

Each year during National Volunteer Week
we also shine a spotlight on our alumni
volunteer achievements.

We hope they inspire you to get involved!

Help students move from study to a
professional career.

We equip current students with real-world
insight into their chosen career through
our popular alumni mentoring program. 

Each year we work with faculties across the
University to partner alumni mentors with
student mentees.

With more than 280,000 alumni across the
world, Monash has a vibrant alumni network.

Our networks are groups of graduates formed
based on shared interests, field of study or
geographical location.

They provide alumni with the opportunity to
keep in touch and network as well as
undertake professional development.

search our networks:

• By location 
• By faculty or department

Volunteer as an alumni contact
in your region.

Many graduates act as a contact point for
students, fellow alumni and the University.

As a global contact you may be approached
to provide advice and share your
professional and life experiences, industry
intelligence and networks.

Global contacts have also proven instrumental
in the formation of new alumni networks.
