What can you bring to VU as an alumnus?
Share your knowledge
All our alumni together represent an enormous wealth of knowledge and experience. Which makes this alumni network very valuable for students and (young) alumni who are at the beginning of their careers. And you as an alumnus can make a contribution in various ways.
For example, would you like to give a guest lecture or be a mentor? Then please mail to alumni.gnk@amsterdamumc.nl.
Share job openings and internships with our students
In search of young talent for an internship or vacancy within your organization? As an alumnus, you also know that bringing in a motivated VU student will provide you with the quality you are looking for. Currently, the Faculty of Medicine is developing a platform where alumni can easily share internships and job opportunities. Once this platform is live, the URL will be shared here.
