Alumni reception in New York

The event will take place from 6pm to 8pm and will be hosted by Senior Vice Principal, Professor Charlie Jeffery.

Also in attendance will be our Vice Principal International, Professor James Smith, and Director of the Global Health Academy, Professor Liz Grant, who will speak about the University’s global aspirations. It will be a great opportunity to find out about recent landmark achievements at the University as well as exciting future developments. 

Following the talks, there will be a drinks and canapés reception, providing you with the opportunity to socialise with alumni from the local area, to celebrate the University of Edinburgh and to meet friends, old and new.

The University has been welcoming students from the USA for hundreds of years and is the most popular destination for UK-bound American students. We currently have over 15,000 alumni residing in the USA. In 2014, the University intensified its long-standing links with North America by opening a liaison office in New York City.  The Office will deepen and widen engagement across the region.
