Alumni Chapters

The University of Leicester is always looking to maintain a strong connection with our graduates and a global way of doing this is through Alumni Chapters! 

What is an Alumni Chapter?

An Alumni Chapter is a social and/or professional networking group organised by and for Alumni. They help to bring Alumni in a specific geographical area together to participate in local activities and events in a fun and friendly environment.

The University of Leicester currently has Chapters in:

• Hong Kong SAR
• Nigeria
• Ghana
• Singapore
• Taiwan
• Levant and Gulf Region 
• University of Leicester Dalian Leicester Institute
• China
• Sri Lanka

We are looking for enthusiastic individuals who are keen to volunteer to join our Chapters as general or committee members. Chapters are made up of a number of roles including President, Secretary, Recent Graduate Officer, Treasurer and Events Officer.

Benefits of joining a Chapter

• Networking opportunities - Chapters can be a great way of meeting those local to you and developing your connections.
• Stay connected to the University - Chapters can keep you connected to your University and help you feel part of the institution.
• Free membership - Being part of a Chapter is free and a membership that you can promote to your network.
• Give back and help others - You can help others in your Chapter with work they might be trying to do or by just being a friendly face to bounce ideas off.
• Expand your skills - Committee roles always look good on a CV and can open up other opportunities.
