Overview
We are delighted to have supported such a large number of talented MBA graduates from the Middle East region. Since our first class graduated in 2008, we have launched The University of Manchester Alumni groups in the Middle East to support our alumni in the region through a dynamic programme of professional development, social events and networking opportunities.
The centre's team supports a regional community of around 5,000 alumni and actively works to create professional networking opportunities to help enrich the wider business community. The Middle East Centre is the largest and fastest growing centre in The University of Manchester's international network and has graduated more than 2,200 students within the region since it first opened in 2006.

MentorME
The University of Manchester Middle East Centre's new mentoring Programme (Manchester MentorME) is here to help you achieve your personal and professional goals. We are excited to announce the launch of our inaugural regional mentoring programme, which provides students and alumni of the University with a unique opportunity to establish a one-to-one mentoring relationship with experienced mentors from our regional alumni network.
As a mentee, you will have access to a diverse pool of mentors who can help guide you on a variety of topics, including starting a business, switching careers, and achieving a better work-life balance and others. You can search for mentors by expertise, location or industry, making it easy to find the perfect mentor to help you achieve your personal and professional goals.
If you are an alumnus looking to give back to the community, we invite you to become a mentor. You will have the opportunity to share your expertise and experiences with our students and alumni, and make a difference by helping guide others to success.
This programme will provide a unique opportunity to build meaningful connections and foster personal and professional growth within our community.
Apply now (initial places are limited) and take the first step towards building a brighter future for yourself and those around you. We can't wait to see you thrive! https://uom-me.chronus.com/p/p2/about
