Welcome! As we continue to enhance the alumni experience by transforming the association into a ‘liason’ for alumni and our beloved institution, the University of Maryland Eastern Shore,  it is our mission to keep you connected through our Alumni communities, news and events and our UMES social networks as a way of donating to and receiving information on our alma mater.

Just like the university itself, UMES alumni are a lot of things. We are provocateurs. Perfectionists. Entrepreneurs. Curious. Empathetic. Active. And hungry. Our path will be ongoing and will not be summed up by a single slogan. We have a mighty spirit inside that will not be denied. Let us stand together and chart our course. Let us capture imaginations. Allow the world to see our genius, our talent, our heritage, our future. We are the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. We are the UMES National Alumni Association. Hawk Pride Flying High!
