- Expand your professional networks to include alumni or employers based in other cities
- Make contacts within different industries
- Gain insight into potential career paths
- Meet and socialize with fellow Tar Heels – especially if you’re new to the area
UNC-Chapel Hill alumni: You can help bridge the gap between students’ academic experiences and professional opportunities.
