Alumni UniBE is the academic network of the University of Bern. It forms a lively and networked community with interested students and alumni. The Alumni UniBE network keeps you in touch with the university even after you graduate and connects you to your own subject via the various specialist associations.

Alumni UniBE helps you to expand your network and keep in touch with fellow students, lecturers and your department. You also have the opportunity to network and exchange ideas with alumni during your studies.

Specialist associations are independent associations that bring together former students and people interested in a particular subject area. Communities are thematic networks within Alumni UniBE in which you can also exchange ideas and network across faculties.

You can register for professional associations here using the registration form. With a dual membership, you have access to all offers of the professional associations and Alumni UniBE. You can easily register for communities via your Alumni UniBE profile. You will find an overview of all professional associations and communities under Network. You can apply for membership of the communities via the community area after logging in.

Anyone who is currently enrolled, has studied at the University of Bern and has completed their studies in Bern with a Bachelor's or Master's degree, a doctorate or a continuing education degree (10 ETCS or more) can become a member of Alumni UniBE. This means that all alumni and enrolled students can become members, regardless of their field of study.

The focus is on cross-faculty interdisciplinary networking. Alumni UniBE is organizationally integrated into the University of Bern. The alumni associations, on the other hand, are organized independently as associations. Alumni UniBE has a partnership with some alumni associations. This means that interested parties automatically become members of both alumni organizations. 

You can find more information about the memberships here.

You can easily register here and log in to Alumni UniBE. Membership of Alumni UniBE, the university-wide alumni organization, costs CHF 60 per year. The annual membership fees for the alumni associations range from CHF 60 to CHF 80. The community is free of charge for students, and new graduates can get to know Alumni UniBE after graduation with a free trial membership.

Membership is renewed annually upon registration and without notice at the end of the year.

For some, the start of their studies marks the beginning of a new phase in their lives. New acquaintances are made and often even friends for life are found. This makes it all the more valuable to get in touch with other students, graduates or lecturers early on and to maintain this connection even after graduation. That's exactly what we're here for! With us, you can build up a personal and professional network and the exchange between students, graduates and alumni members is encouraged. This way, you can continue to experience the atmosphere of your student days. Best of all, the diversity of disciplines, career paths and people at different stages of life offers alumni and students alike the opportunity to be inspired by the experiences of the community. Alumni UniBE keeps you in touch with the University of Bern and gives you access to the latest research and knowledge for your personal development.
