A Powerful Alumni Network
Few universities can boast a business alumni network as large, as worldwide and as loyal as Wisconsin’s. Our focus on career specializations enables our alumni to share their knowledge, experience and contacts more effectively with the students who share a career interest.
As a Wisconsin student, you will benefit from connections made possible by Wisconsin business alumni living and working throughout the world. You’ll have immediate online access to an extensive database that lists our alumni by geographic location and career position, providing exactly the type of contacts you need.
You’ll also benefit from the strong alumni ties of the greater UW-Madison alumni community. Many of the more than 334,000 UW-Madison alumni—in a variety of majors—are leaders in their businesses and their communities worldwide.
Exposure to alumni who are leading executives is an important part of graduate business education at Wisconsin. Our alumni are top executives from firms such as Cisco Systems, Ford Motor Company, Toshiba, Kimberly-Clark, Kraft/Oscar Mayer Foods, Merrill Lynch, Procter & Gamble, Spectrum Brands and Sun Microsystems.
