University of Michigan graduates are some of the proudest alumni around. Anywhere in the world, if you go out wearing a Michigan shirt, someone will greet you with "Go Blue!"
When U-M offered the nation’s first college-level forestry course in 1881, it staked a claim to environmental leadership for decades to come. Since then, our school—which has been called, successively, the School of Forestry and Conservation, SNR (School of Natural Resources), SNRE (School of Natural Resources and Environment), and now SEAS (School for Environment and Sustainability)—has trained over 12,300 students to practice and promote responsible stewardship of our natural world. It is the largest graduate population of any environmental-degree program.
When you become a SEAS student, you gain access to this immense network. As leaders and accomplished professionals, SEAS alumni provide invaluable guidance to students. Whether through mentorships, internships, or networking invitations, alumni support students in their efforts to become the next leaders of environment and sustainability.
SEASnet, the school's alumni-student networking platform, is a terrific way to grow your professional network and learn from some of the best environmental game changers around. With SEASnet, you can connect directly with alumni on your own schedule and in support of your personal goals. You can join as early as the start of your first semester.
In our latest issue of Stewards, we’re bringing you stories about SEAS’ research, education, impact and engagement in Northern Michigan, along with feature stories about tiger conservation in Nepal and resilient water policy solutions in the Great Lakes region. We also feature an excerpt from SEAS Professor Emeritus Bunyan Bryant’s memoir, as well as an expanded alumni profiles section.
