As an UMSL Optometry alumni ambassador, you will play a significant role in enhancing UMSL Optometry by increasing the visibility of the college’s alumni network, while sharing your time and talent with prospective and current students as well as other alumni.

The Alumni Ambassador program is comprised of UMSL Optometry alumni volunteers who have agreed to serve as a resource for various levels of programming within the university and local communities. This is an opportunity for alumni to give back to the university and for prospective and current students to benefit from our graduates’ experience.
