The Graduate School and Duke University want to be more than just a fond memory after you leave Duke. We want to be a supportive community that you can turn to at each stage of your continuing professional and personal journeys. Here are a few ways for graduates to take advantage of our career services, lifelong learning opportunities, and ways to engage with other alumni, the university, our faculty, and our students.
