What a fantastic first year!
Published on December 18, 2025
For a long time, the idea of a campus-wide alumni network was just that—an idea. Then, after months of preparation, our new Alumni Platform finally came to life this year!
And a lot has happened since our launch in March 2025:
- Hundreds of members joined from all over the world; it was so much fun to watch the map fill up.
- New features were introduced like the live feed, the media recordings and the participation list for events.
- Both online and in-person events took place, culminating in a celebration of the new platform at the PhD Symposium “Alumni Edition” in November.
- And just recently, we launched a new mentoring program!
All in all, we confidently call it a very successful year 😊
But of course, we are also curious about your experience. Let us know what you think and leave us your feedback, suggestions or ideas here.
A big thank you to all of you who joined and helped make this network a true place for connection, inspiration, and exchange. The Alumni Team wishes you a restful holiday season and a wonderful start to the new year. We’re excited about what 2026 may bring, and we hope you are too!
