Welcome to DCU Alumni
Our graduates help DCU to deliver its mission to transform lives and societies.
The DCU community stretches far and wide beyond our campuses, with 110,000 graduates worldwide, located all over the world.
You can help us enhance your alumni community by updating your details, attending reunions and joining our international chapters, benefitting from our award winning Mentorship and Emerging Leaders Programmes, and engaging with our extended list of engagement opportunities; there’s something there for everyone!
Your volunteering can help transform the student experience at DCU and the experience of your fellow graduates. This in turn, enhances your own personal and professional network of contacts, friends and fellow graduates.
Our alumni team wants to develop the graduate experience for everyone within our alumni community, to ensure you can maximise your alumni network from DCU.
