Membership Alumni Association AIG

As a newly graduated engineer, you are now part of AIG, the alumni association that connects graduates of the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture after their studies. AIG is one of the most dynamic alumni associations at Ghent University and organises more than 30 diverse activities each year:

  • Lectures, such as the popular TechBoost! (in the UFO) and Update@Campus sessions on current topics, followed by extensive receptions (often featuring local beers) to catch up and network.

  • Exclusive site and company visits at leading organisations (such as the visit to ESA and the Oosterweel construction site in 2025), made possible through the wide alumni network.

  • Award ceremonies, including the Engineer of the Year presentation, and the finals of the Jozef Plateau Prize and Leo Baekeland Prize, where the best master’s thesis title is contested.

  • Friendly reunions where alumni meet up, including the annual After Summer Drink in the historic Saint Peter’s Abbey.

For recent graduates, there is the Engage programme, in which young engineers organise practical workshops, inspiring lectures and festive activities for their peers.

As an AIG member, you also enjoy extra benefits with the student societies of our faculty, such as free tickets for VTK events (Show, Vooruit parties...) and a free invitation to the exclusive alumni reception at the Engineers’ Gala Ball.

As an AIG member, you will receive the alumni magazine AIG News each quarter, and you will also get the Ghent University alumni card, which allows you to eat at student rates in the university restaurants and to use the GUSB sports facilities.
