Alumni Network
Since 1979, University of Applied Sciences Europe (UE Amsterdam) has developed a network of more than 10,000+ Alumni worldwide.
Most students at UE Amsterdam come from an entrepreneurial background, their families own and run the largest family business both in the Netherlands and internationally. By joining UE Amsterdam students join a network of successful businessmen and women who can help them in their career.
Every year there are alumni meetings and pitches. Alumni worldwide can be accessed through the Alumni portal and are eager and willing to help students with internships and introductions to companies around the world.
Besides this UE Amsterdam works together with a select group of partner companies that help educate the students in practice. Examples are large law firms, leading logistical companies, the largest accounting firm, the distributor of Porsche, Audi, and Volkswagen, and the most successful marketing companies.
During their education, students build a network that will be a great asset for the rest of their lives.
How can I leverage this portal?
Steps:
- Sign up at the portal
- Screening through UE Amsterdam, if you are indeed a student or alumni (takes up to 5 business days)
- Get accepted and start networking
I strongly advise students to be open-minded and get to know everyone at the school. Networking is a crucial part of starting your own business later on. I've gained so much from the connections I made at UE Amsterdam.
