Mission and vision

Mission

We create lifelong relationships with alumni and friends of the university for the benefit of society, DTU, and members of the network.

Vision

We provide alumni and friends with the opportunity to engage and contribute to DTU's development while also enhancing their own personal and professional growth.

Values

At DTU, we are proud of our alumni, who are our best ambassadors. We consider everyone who has a relationship with DTU and is interested in DTU as friends. Alumni and friends can become members of the network, where they can share and access knowledge and learning, as well as contribute to DTU and the network.

Strategic approach

We communicate relevant news and offers and involve alumni and friends in DTU's development. Alumni and friends can make a difference for the university in many ways:

  • Ambassadors: Strengthen DTU's brand by advocating for DTU and helping to raise awareness and secure support for the university's initiatives and programmes.
  • Participation: Actively participate in university events and contribute to the community.
  • Network: Use their professional networks to create opportunities for students, alumni, and researchers from DTU through internships, job opportunities, and collaborative projects.
  • Volunteering: Offer time and expertise in various capacities, which also contributes to personal development, e.g., through mentoring programmes and advisory boards.
  • Recruitment: Attract potential new students to DTU's programmes, including lifelong learning opportunities, and potential new employees to DTU – either through direct personal interest or through personal networks.
  • Financial support: Contribute with donations and investments to fund scholarships, research, innovation, and campus improvements.
