International Clubs

With one of the largest and best alumni networks in the world – more than 460,000 strong – University of Michigan graduates can reconnect with the University and each other, both in the United States and abroad, through the Alumni Association. To spur this international pride, the Alumni Association has established nearly 30 International Alumni Contacts (IACs) that serve as a starting point for alumni who wish to identify, network and connect with each other abroad.

To stay informed on University news and alumni events, accurate contact information from alumni around the world is needed. The Alumni Association asks that you update your University record by visiting the University of Michigan Alumni Record Update Web site to keep this connection alive.

If you are interested in becoming an IAC for a country not already represented, please fill out the IAC Responsibility Statement and contact Jo Rumsey at jorumsey@umich.edu.
