Around 200 alumni meet again in Barcelona, Madrid, Pamplona and San Sebastián

A total of 200 alumni from Tecnun have gathered in the last meetings organized in Barcelona, Madrid, Pamplona and San Sebastian.

The goal of the events, as explained by the head of Alumni at Tecnun, Sole Abad, is to continue at contact with "a very important part of the University", as well as helping them to create synergies with other professionals and with the School itself or Ceit. "With these meetings, links are strengthened and contacts are established that benefit the professional opportunities for our students, give rise to new lines of research, common projects...", exemplifies Abad. "Collaborations arise even when a former student cannot come, because by calling them together you awaken the sense of belonging to Tecnun", he adds. "Through alumni we promote the relationship between the University and the company, and if Tecnun is at the forefront as a School of Engineering, it is largely thanks to them". 

From @alumni_unav at Tecnun November is being projected as the month of reunions by cities. The last event of the month took place at the School. Specifically, in the txoko. #somosTecnun #unav pic.twitter.com/8dlcVTyjby

25th anniversary celebration: an update of the School

On November 19, Tecnun celebrated its 25th anniversary with the students of the 95th and 96th graduating classes, who were unable to celebrate because of the pandemic.

The director of development of Tecnun, Iñigo Gutiérrez, spoke to them about the current Study program, they visited the laboratories and classrooms of the School and were reminded of the goal of Alumni. The Professor Emeritus, Juan Flaquer, had the opportunity to greet his former students and some of them returned to class to sit where they had studied, as Sole Abad recounted anecdotally.

It should be noted that in 2023 the graduating classes that completed their studies 25 years ago will be called together to organize a similar event. Also, in addition to the usual activities, the tenth anniversary of each Degree will be celebrated throughout the academic year.
