Office of Alumni Engagement

Introduction

CHRIST (Deemed to be University) ever since its inception has been nurturing and fostering the association of its Alumni namely the Christ University Alumni Association.

This has necessitated the establishment of a dedicated office of the University to facilitate essential oversight of the association’s activities for its legitimacy and to ensure timely communication/directions as may be necessary from the perspective of the University. The University has, therefore, established an Office of Alumni Engagement (OAE) with effect from April 2021 headed by the Pro-Vice-Chancellor.

Vision

To promote a vibrant community of alumni, foster lifelong connections between alumni and the university, and enrich the lives of all stakeholders.

Mission

To promote the spirit of the Alumni Association among the alumni and senior students at the University and to encourage them to become members of the Alumni Association.
