Did you know that once you complete your course at Imperial, you’ll become part of a global network of over 220,000 alumni? This powerful community is here to help you explore career possibilities, gain first-hand insights, and shape your professional journey.

Careers Service programmes

The Careers Service offers two initiatives for connecting with alumni:

  • Ask an Alum: This programme offers exclusive access to Imperial graduates through Vygo. Create an account, answer a few questions, and get matched with alumni who can offer tailored advice and career insights. You can start one-to-one conversations or browse profiles to find someone who aligns with your interests. Have questions? Email: askalum@imperial.ac.uk.
  • Alumni Mentoring Scheme: Running from December to April, this scheme pairs students with professional alumni working in fields of interest. Through at least four engagement points, mentors help students gain informed career insights and build confidence in their career direction. Applications are now open, and full details can be found on the scheme’s webpage. Have questions? Email: mentoring@imperial.ac.uk.
