International chapters

The University of Brighton community is truly international and we are keen to maintain a close relationship with alumni living and working overseas and to help them foster relationships with other University of Brighton graduates in their area.

Our international chapters are at the core of this work. They help us to plan and host events for fellow alumni, and serve as contact points for alumni in their countries interested in meeting other alumni.

Alumni chapters are established in areas where large populations of University of Brighton alumni live and work. At the backbone of this network are dedicated individual alumni who give their time locally to support and promote the university and its alumni.

If you are keen to set up an alumni chapter in your region or would like to get more involved in an existing group, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us by emailing alumni@brighton.ac.uk for further information.

They also assist faculty and students travelling or studying abroad. Email alumni@brighton.ac.uk for more details.
