Dear Alumni, Dear Visitor,

It is with great pleasure and warmth that I welcome you to the alumni community website of the University of Pécs.

 

I trust that the years you spent at the University of Pécs remain with you as formative and cherished memories, whether you are a recent graduate or began your career decades ago with a degree from our University in hand. The knowledge acquired here, the professional experiences, the friendships, and the university memories connect us for a lifetime. I believe that belonging to the University of Pécs community is not merely about one's student years – it is a lifelong connection.

The more than 650-year history of the University of Pécs is a heritage of which we can all be proud. Building upon our University’s traditions whilst remaining open to the challenges of the future, we strive to ensure that our education, research, and innovation activities further strengthen our institution’s national and international standing. Digitalisation, artificial intelligence, and the continuous advancement of science offer us new opportunities, while our unwavering goal remains the preservation of all the values that have defined the ethos of the University of Pécs for centuries.

You, our former students, remain defining members of this community today. You represent the University of Pécs in many corners of the world; through your work, professional achievements, and personal integrity, you enhance the esteemed reputation of our Alma Mater. We take pride in your successes, for they are the successes of our University too.

The aim of the Alumni Programme is to foster a dynamic and valuable relationship between you and the University well after graduation. We want this community to serve as a platform for reunions, professional collaborations, shared experiences, and inspiring stories, where different generations can support and strengthen one another. I hope you will find useful information on our website, take pleasure in attending our events, and return home to your Alma Mater from time to time.

Thank you for continuing to be a part of the University of Pécs community today. I believe the strength of our University derives not only from its rich past and present achievements, but also from the tens of thousands of alumni who champion our shared values every day, both here at home and across the globe.
