Peer recognition is an important aspect of a university's reputation. I am delighted to report this month that the University of Melbourne has risen in the Times Higher Education World Reputation Rankings, remaining Australia's top ranked university.

This month we are excited to offer an expanded range of offers to our alumni. We have teamed up with Melbourne University Press to provide a permanent discount for alumni purchasing books through the University's new online bookstore.

You can win tickets to an exclusive breakfast at the Australian Festival of Travel Writing, while there are now also discounts av ailable for alumni at the Melbourne Eye Care Clinic and those attending the Melbourne Museum's Afghanistan exhibition.

We also recommend taking advantage of some of the networking opportunities available, by joining our Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn groups. They are a great way to find out more about alumni offers and events.

Sincerely

Signature

Leonie Boxtel
Director of Alumni Relations
