Welcome

The University of Michigan Schools of Public Health and Social Work have developed new online directories for their respective alumni, to help their alumni get in touch with classmates and create networking opportunities. The directories went in October 2015. By default, the following information is searchable: first/last name, degree-related public information, email address, home city, state, country, and region.

We invite you to customize your listing in the directories.

By updating your privacy settings, you can select which information is searchable and which is kept hidden from search. You can change any of these settings between now and October (or any time thereafter, if you wish). You can also choose to completely opt-out of online alumni directories.

Steps to Update Your Profile

You can update your profile by performing the following easy steps:

What is the difference between my U-M Profile ("My Profile") and my Directory Profile?: Your U-M Profile displays and allows you to edit your contact information as found in the U-M Alumni database. Your Directory Profile presents your contact information as it will be displayed in the alumni directory (i.e. this is how other alumni searching for you will "see" you). Note: you will see all of your contact information when viewing your own Directory Profile including any information that you've set to be private/hidden. Other alumni will not see information that you have set to private/hidden.
How do I update my U-M Profile information?: You can update your profile information by logging into the U-M Profile update page. You may update your directory privacy settings by logging into the privacy setting page
