Alumni - Ambassadors

The Alumni Ambassadors Programme offers alumni the opportunity to promote FEUP abroad and expand their network of contacts.

Through its Alumni Office, FEUP fosters connections with its alumni by driving the FEUPLink community, which includes various initiatives, activities, and networking opportunities aimed at maintaining contact, promoting interactions, and supporting the professional growth of its alumni.

The Alumni Ambassadors Programme provides alumni with the opportunity to contribute to the visibility of FEUP as an institution of engineering excellence by promoting the university abroad. It also serves as a way to demonstrate pride in their alma mater and offers a great opportunity to expand their network of contacts.

Any student who has completed a study programme at FEUP and is currently based outside of Portugal can apply for the position of Ambassador. Applications are reviewed based on experience in the selected area of action and geographical location (the number of existing Ambassadors and FEUP Friends within the same area is a factor to be considered).

Networking Hub

In addition to the personal satisfaction of helping to shape the future of their School – a legacy that will be passed on to future generations – this experience promotes the development of new organisational and social skills: establishing contacts with key figures from universities, expanding the networking hub in the country of residence, strengthening leadership skills, acquiring new competencies useful for professional life, and gaining recognition and visibility in FEUP’s communication channels through involvement in the programme. It is part of FEUP's engagement programme with its alumni.
