Transitioning into retirement does not mean losing the work, life and community connections made during your career. Retirees Associations are available at each UM System university, and they advocate for their retiree communities and actively contribute to the welfare of their institutions. Select your university below to learn more about the affiliated retirees association.

Pension Plan Funding Performance
The university's pension plan (the Retirement, Disability and Death Benefit Plan, referred to as "the Plan") is in good health. Members of the Defined Benefit Plan (DB Plan) and Hybrid Plan, who have a pension benefit under the Plan, can count on receiving the benefits they鈥檝e earned. Visit the Pension Plan Funding Performance webpage to learn more.
The university takes its fiduciary responsibility very seriously and will never waiver from that commitment.
