Alumni Relations in the new Division of Global Engagement!

As the Division of External Relations transitions into the Division of Global Engagement on 1 April, Alumni Relations will continue as an integral part of the new division. The strategy remains committed to supporting our nearly 50,000 members of the Alumni Network, fostering engagement and strengthening lifelong connections with Lund University.

“Our alumni are invaluable to Lund University. Their achievements and connections around the world enhance our global presence and impact. We are committed to supporting and engaging with our alumni community, no matter where they are.” – Richard Stenelo

Led by Richard Stenelo, the division will bring together key international activities, including Erasmus+, international student mobility, student recruitment for international programmes, global alliances, networks and initiatives, to create conditions to increase international impact in research, education, innovation and external engagement. This change reflects Lund University’s ambition to enhance its global presence and create new opportunities for collaboration worldwide. At the same time, Swedish alumni remain just as important as ever. Alumni near and far play a vital role in Lund University’s global presence and impact.

In today’s interconnected world, where you live, where you work or what language you speak matters less than the connections you build. The digital age has erased many borders, making it easier than ever for alumni – no matter where they are – to stay engaged, contribute and remain part of Lund University’s global community.
