Stay Engaged


There many ways of staying engaged with the English Department and your alma mater.

  • Share your knowledge will fellow alums and current students as a speaker in an alums event.
  • Deliver careers advice to current students and share your professional experiences in online talks. Have you completed your PhD and have transitioned to a job outside of academia? Share your experiences in the online series "Let's Talk About Careers" organized by the University's Graduate Academy. Example of previous session.
  • Invite alums to your workplace and show them what you do and how your studies helped you get where you are now.
  • Start an alums chapter in your region to socialize and network with fellow alums.
  • Organize a one-off alums event and help UT English department alums to reconnect.
  • Start your own alums book club online or face-to-face and create a space for lively debates and discussions.
  • Start a fundraising scheme to fund a Deutschlandstipendium for a student studying at the English Department and meet them at the official Deutschlandstipendium ceremony held at Castle Hohentübingen once a year. Find more information on funding a Deutschlandstipendium here.
  • Connect with other alums and help build a strong alums network
