Pittsburgh Alumni Network
The alumni network, founded in 2017, is an excellent opportunity to stay in touch with other former exchange students. After the first alumni event in 2017, we will establish an annual "Meet & Greet". In June 2023, the second alumni event took place. Below you find some impressions. Being a part of the exchange program with the Joseph M. Katz Graduate School of Business or the College of Business Administration therefore does not end with the semester abroad, but creates a sustainable network which is beneficial for both alumni and future exchange students.

The alumni network gives former and future exchange students the opportunity to contact each other.
