Alumni include eight Nobel Laureates and two prime ministers.

The size of Birmingham’s postgraduate community also means that there is an impressive range of opportunities to engage in extra-curricular university life from a distance, whether taking part in online workshops and networking events, or joining one of the university’s many clubs and special interest societies.
There is a resident postgraduate officer to act as a representative for the university as a whole, and to help cultivate a global community of learning and collaboration.
