The University of Sydney UK Alumni Association (USUKAA) encourages its members in the United Kingdom to engage in the life of the University and with each other. USUKAA welcomes all alumni, students, friends and family of the University of Sydney. Alumni in other European countries are also welcome to participate in the association's events and activities.
USUKAA hosts and subsidises a mixture of social, professional and educational activities throughout the year from our annual summer reception, meet ups, lectures by visiting University academics, mentoring programs and trips around the UK and Europe.
We also partner closely with the University of Sydney Alumni and Faculty hosted events when they visit London throughout the year.
Membership is open to Alumni, Staff and Friends (people who have an interest in the University but who are not Alumni). Read more about membership benefits here.
USUKAA is a not-for-profit organisation in the UK and run by a volunteer committee. All membership fees go to support the administrative costs of hosting quality events and maintaining an active network in the UK.
For our current members, please don't forget to keep your Membership details up to date in our My Membership section. For all the latest across the Alumni community at the University of Sydney, make sure you sign up for notifications here.
