Alumni convention – Office of Alumni Relations and Engagement

As of January 2023, Habib University has graduated 5 cohorts of young people who have gone on to a variety of scholarly and professional pursuits, impacting their communities in myriad ways.

Our alumni are the truest representation of what the University stands for and as such should be among our key strategic partners. However, due to the effects of COVID19 among other factors, many HU alumni today remain disengaged and disconnected from the University.

The First HU Alumni Convention will serve as the catalyst to rekindle positive relationship between our alumni and the University on a larger scale than ever before. The Planning Committee will be instrumental in ensuring that our identified goals are appropriate, and that the Convention is planned to effectively accomplish each of these goals.

Purpose

The overall aim of this Committee is to ensure the Alumni Convention is being planned such that:

1. A connection is strengthened between the University and alumni and among the alumni themselves. Specifically ensuring alumni feel welcomed and connected on HU campus
2. HU alumni are recognized and appreciated for their work in academia, industry, government, and civil society
3. The wider HU community achieves greater insight regarding alumni journeys
4. Alumni are facilitated to connect across different regions
5. Help reignite a sense of ownership of the University among Alumni
6. We clearly communicate the future alumni engagement program

The Alumni Convention is being envisioned to celebrate, recognize, and appreciate 5 cohorts of Habib University alumni who are making their mark across industry, academia, government, and civil society.
