Information for our Mathematics Alumni

We value our rich and diverse community in the School of Mathematics, and we want to maintain and grow that community as our students graduate and go on to interesting careers. We therefore encourage our graduates to stay in touch, get involved with volunteering opportunities, and grow the talent around you.  

Events

We encourage you to take advantage of the events and activities that we host for our alumni:

  • INFORMED AI Summer School, 15-18 June

Join INFORMED AI for their 2nd Annual Summer School, a unique chance to explore the cutting‑edge mathematics behind AI and machine learning in Bristol on 15-18 June 2026.

With short courses from leading international researchers Bruno Loureiro (École Normale Supérieure, Paris) Sanjay Shakkottai (The University of Texas at Austin) and Gayane Vardoyan (University of Massachusetts, Amherst) the Summer School offers a vibrant, collaborative environment for early‑career and established researchers alike.

Volunteering

Our alumni are a valuable source of information and inspiration for our current students. Please get involved in supporting our students via the following events: 

  • Maths at Work 

Maths at Work is a fantastic opportunity to discuss and demonstrate first-hand the application of maths, analytics and data science in your work whilst connecting with academics, students and the wider community in the School of Mathematics. 

  • Get Interview Ready 

At Get Interview Ready we run online, dedicated practice interviews for our students with industry professionals working in a mathematical job role. We invite School of Mathematics Alumni and individual representatives from industry partners to provide true to life interview experience and constructive feedback to prepare students for internship, placement and graduate job interviews.  

  • An Evening with Alumni 

This in-person panel event showcases the expertise and experience of our alumni for current students to provide an opportunity to learn about the careers and experiences of University of Bristol Mathematics alumni across a range of sectors and career points and inspire them to consider their personal career journeys.
