The Office of Alumni Relations fosters a life-long relationship between UTA alumni and their alma mater by providing updates on the University and the exciting things happening on campus. We also host in-person and virtual events, provide a variety of benefits and discounts to alumni, and offer access to the UTA Library, Maverick Activity Center, and the Lockheed Martin Career Development Center.
Our Donor Relations and Stewardship team works to express our gratitude to UTA’s donors and recognize the importance of their support through a variety of events and programs. We manage the 1895 Society, which recognizes donors of $1,000 or more to the University. We produce the annual endowment reports sent to donors each year and host a number of stewardship events throughout the year to thank our donors.
The University Events Office produces events throughout the year to celebrate the UTA community. We also produce the Maverick Speakers Series, bringing engaging speakers each year.
Alumni Relations helps Maverick alumni connect with their alma mater through upcoming events, alumni learning opportunities, and more. Follow the link below to learn more.
