Each year presents several opportunities for UC Merced alumni to reconnect with the UC Merced Alumni Association (UCMAA), their fellow alumni and current students either through events, volunteer opportunities or leadership roles.
You don't need to be in Merced to be an active member of the UCMAA (although we hope you'll always visit us when you're in the area).If you have other ideas on how you'd like to get involved with the UCMAA, please don't hesitate to share them with the Alumni Office.
We want to make sure we continue to serve our mission of exchanging ideas and information to aid in our alumni and student experiences. Learn more about the different groups who are helping us build the future in the heart of California...
