More Than 2 Years After Graduation

The Mines Career Center continues to provide services for up to two years after graduation.

After 2 years post-graduation, please review the Mines Alumni Services offered by the Colorado School of Mines Foundation.

If you have any questions or need additional information, please email John Griffin, Associate Director, Alumni Engagement, or call (303) 273-3904.

Services and resources available to Mines alumni include:

  1. Alumni Job Center – Job seekers can use this site to browse current opportunities, post resumes and create new job alerts. Alumni employers can post positions to recruit Mines alumni with 2+ years experience in their field.  
  2. Resume forwarding services – The alumni office will forward job seeker resumes to alumni working at the companies where they want to work. Alumni job seekers must have applied for a job at the company in which they are interested before submitting the resume-forwarding form.  
  3. Update Your Information – Make sure your information is up to date in the Mines Alumni database so that you receive relevant emails for your area. Mines events happen everywhere and having up-to-date information makes sure you are made aware any time something is happening near you.
  4. Alumni Online Directory – Alumni actively or passively looking for new employment opportunities can utilize the Mines alumni online directory to network and reach out to alumni in the companies, industries or geographic location where they are looking for jobs.
  5. Networking Opportunities – Alumni are encouraged to network in-person with other Mines alumni at local and regional events. The Colorado School of Mines Foundation supports many M Clubs, Interest Groups, and alumni events to bring Orediggers together for both social and professional networking.
  6. Career Day – Career Days is a multi-day event organized by the Colorado School of Mines Career Center. Mines students and alumni are invited to attend both the fall and spring Career Days to meet with hundreds of companies and their representatives. The first day for both the fall and spring Career Days concludes with an alumni happy hour providing an opportunity for all alumni attendees to unwind and socialize.”
