Alumni

What is Alumni?

Queen’s University is a source of education, entertainment and professional/personal development for former students. The University fosters links between alumni and students, through mentoring and career development initiatives and encourages graduates to reunite and attend a diverse range of events both on campus and around the world.  Businesses may choose to support these initiatives through their CSR programmes.

Alumni associations allow Queen’s graduates to maintain their links both locally and internationally, while our regular publications and social media updates keep graduates up to date on developments on campus and with their peers through profiles of fellow alumni members. 

Businesses can reach out to alumni via inserts in printed publications sent to over 150,000 alumni (almost 120K of whom are in registered in Northern Ireland) and can sponsor content and competitions in print and online.

How can your organisation engage with Alumni Engagement?

  • Feature your organisation in biannual printed publications mailed to over 150K alumni and in regular e-newsletter will soon be reaching over 100K alumni every month
  • Sponsor content on social media networks (Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter) which target the alumni audience.

  • Discounts and special alumni rates for graduates with campus services such as Queen’s Sport and the Library can be supplemented with offers from third parties
