Alumni

The alumni group is an extremely important aspect to the overall success of the Sustainable Urban Management program at Malmo University. The graduates are the face of the program and their trials and successes are shared with those who are currently a part of the program and those who will follow for years to come. As such, this is a forum whereby the alumni are able to share some of their memories of the program and discuss real life experiences that may be beneficial to others in the sustainability field. It also serves as a platform for employers to come to seek the best of the best in the field of sustainable development.
