ALUMNI NETWORK MEETINGS

Alumni Ambassadors

We aim to forge strong ties between students and alumni in Austria and abroad in order to build a worldwide IMC community – a network of alumni who provide each other with mutual support. For several years now, IMC Alumni Ambassadors have been working hard to achieve this goal. They are graduates who work voluntarily and found IMC Alumni Chapters in the city where they currently live. Their work includes supporting students who are completing internships or exchange semesters in their area by acting as mentors, or organising events for their local alumni community.

IMC Alumni Chapters all over the world

We already have 29 city chapters. And what’s more, the IMC Alumni Network is constantly growing. Get involved in the activities of your local IMC Alumni Chapter – our Alumni Ambassadors introduce themselves here.

IMC Alumni Academy

More than just a network: "Knowledge Sharing"

The IMC Alumni Academy was founded in spring 2020 as a further education initiative and offers a comprehensive range of workshops, some of which are subject to a fee.

The IMC Alumni Academy covers a wide range of different topics - for example, management training, digital skills, HR, marketing and much more. The further training courses offered as workshops are primarily conducted by alumni for alumni, but also for students and interested persons. Participants can also discuss their own problems and questions from their companies with the workshop leaders and other alumni. In short: Practical relevance at its best.

Do you also want to pass on your knowledge as a workshop leader? We are always looking for new workshop leaders and are looking forward to hearing from you.

Alumni - Kick-off Mentoring Programm 2019

IMC Mentoring Programme

With help and advice at the side of our students

 Through the IMC Mentoring Programme, IMC Alumni support our bachelor degree students from the Department of Business and from the Department of Life Sciences, who are in the final year of their bachelor degree, in planning their next career steps. The alumni act as mentors. They come from a variety of functions and industries and have between 5 and 20 years of professional experience.

Mentors share their own professional experiences with their mentees, i.e. the students, and provide constructive feedback and advice. They do not present their mentees with ready-made solutions – the aim is rather to support the students in finding their professional direction and orientation. Alumni discuss their strengths, talents and interests with the mentees and ask questions such as: What interests you? Where do you want to go? Where will you apply?

Mentors meet their mentees in person at a kick-off meeting and are expected to exchange ideas at at least four other personal (or virtual) meetings during the winter semester.

Have we sparked your interest? If you would like to share your experience as a mentor, please get in touch with us.

Provide a testimonial

Alumni as brand ambassadors

You’ll answers their questions about degree programmes, internships and career prospects, and tell them about your time at IMC Krems and what you’ve gone on to do. Alumni take part on a voluntary basis. We are always happy to show our appreciation by featuring you in the related coverage on our communications channels if you wish.

Part-time lecturing or guest lecture

We have especially strong ties with our alumni. This is reflected in the large number of alumni working as lecturers and guest lecturers at the university – the figure currently stands at 30, most of them on business and health degree programmes.

Graduation ceremonies: all rise for the new alumni!

We’re delighted that you have completed your degree. You can be proud of yourself.

Now is the time to celebrate your achievement in the proper style. Let’s make your graduation ceremony a day to remember.

Graduation ceremonies take place in the main hall at Campus Krems (Wing G1), a venue with plenty of space to celebrate with your friends and relatives.

Celebrating together

The ceremony begins after you and the other graduating students make your formal entrance. The programme directors and other representatives of the university will then offer some inspirational thoughts for you to take away.

Following the academic pledge, each student is invited to the stage in turn to collect their degree certificate. 

At the end of the ceremony, you can toast your graduation with your friends and family – including on the terrace outside the hall, weather permitting. 

Need more details? Don’t worry, we’ll be in touch with everything you need to know about your graduation ceremony well in advance of the big day.

Tell us what you’ve been up to. We want to integrate your know-how into the degree programmes of the future. Your feedback is extremely valuable – for us and for everyone who is studying at IMC Krems.
We’ve also developed special event formats for our alumni that are all about networking, mentoring and sharing expertise.

As the university has grown, so has the alumni community and Home Coming, which now attracts around 500 former students. And we’re delighted to welcome back every single one of them!
