Stay Connected to UC from Your Smart Phone


The world of technology is advancing, and UC is following suit with the development of a UC Alumni mobile application that keeps you connected, no matter where you are geographically. The app, which is available for free download from iTunes and Google Play, boasts a number of features to keep UC right at your fingertips – literally.

The UC Alumni mobile app launched in late February in conjunction with the UC mobile app and a new on-campus mobile apps incubator. The mobile app incubator provides a space for students, faculty and staff, and alumni to collaborate and build mobile apps together.

Features

Phase one of the UC Alumni mobile app includes the following features:
  • Directory– Search and connect with other UC alumni
  • News – Get access to current happenings at UC
  • Events –  Attend networking events across the country
  • Social – Connect with alumni on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and more
  • Give – Donate, volunteer, be a mentor, and more! 
  • My Info – Update your contact information
  • Network – Connect with UC alumni where you are 
  • Perks - All UC alumni receive these FREE benefits and discounts 
More to come…

At UC, we’re always striving to improve. And that’s why we are already taking steps to make the UC Alumni app even more beneficial for you. Our plans include adding engagement features like a geo-location section that allows you to find and connect with other UC alums, better integration with social networking sites like LinkedIn, a jobs directory, and more.

If you are interested in providing feedback about the application, please email us at proudlycincinnati@uc.edu. To learn more, visit the mobile app section of the alumni website.
