The UJ Alumni Network is committed to helping you to maintain contact with the University and its worldwide community and to keeping you informed and engaged. It provides a range of opportunities for you to stay involved and contribute to the life of our University. The involvement of alumni is crucial to the health and strength of UJ. Alumni provide important ties between the past and the present, but also building blocks for the future. The Alumni Network helps to serve alumni needs and encourage their involvement and support. The UJ Alumni Network identifies with the University’s positioning and transformation processes. Its structures will therefore reflect the demographic profile of our alumni; and its activities will support specific values and principles. The UJ Alumni Network is committed to being a socially relevant institution, not only for the University, but for the broader community. It underwrites the vision and mission of UJ.
