Overview
UNITECH students are people who want to become highly qualified internationally experienced engineering graduates with access to prime international internships and employment positions. As a UNITECH you will have earned a specific engineering degree plus at least one year of international experience and exposure. Add that to the highly developed skills and sensitivities gained during the one year UNITECH Programme and you have the advanced capabilities in handling diverse people, tasks and professional situations that will take you far along your career path.

Participation in the UNITECH Programme brings advantages on two levels:
UNITECH Alumni Association
After the UNITECH year, the student is encouraged to become a member of the UNITECH Alumni Association (UM), which is a network of young international engineering professionals who have taken part in the UNITECH Programme. The association aims to preserve the UNITECH spirit and is responsible for liaising between its members, UNITECH International Society and its Academic and Corporate Partners. UAA puts together a rich programme of educational and social events for its members. Please read more about the UAA: https://www.unitech-international.org/the-network/alumni.
Engaging with the programme means direct professional and personal connections with UNITECH Corporate Partners, who are eager to establish their own connections with talent like you. The nature of this engagement can be at the professional engineering level and can go further than that of a classic HR-driven recruiting contact. The UNITECH network provides professional and personal connection to like-minded professionals from other partner universities and among the UNITECH Alumni Association members. These connections are intended to bring mutual benefit in areas of technical innovation, market opportunities and knowledge sharing.
On the local level, the UAA organizes various events in Local Chapters. Meet each of the Local Chapter Coordinators at https://www.unitech-international.org/the-network/alumni/about-the-unitech-alumni-association/organisation/uaa-council. Each Local Chapter Coordina-tor has experienced the UNITECH Programme and can answer a wide range of questions concerning the programme, the university and some other partner universities.
