Swiss Alumni in China

Alumni Chapters

Swissnex in China has been playing an active role in the Swiss alumni community in China. We support the establishment of alumni chapters and other alumni activities. Below you can find the contact information of active alumni chapters/groups in Shanghai.

If you are an alumnus or alumna of a Swiss public university now working or living in Shanghai and its surroundings, you can contact the respective alumni coordinator or chapter head to get connected to your former schoolmates and keep updated about the activities of your alumni group.

If you cannot find your school on the list and want to build an alumni chapter/group in Shanghai yourself, get in contact with Swissnex in China and we will be happy to help you!

Swiss Alumni China

More than 3,000 alumni from about 25 Swiss higher education institutions are currently based in China.

Every year, Swissnex in China holds the Swiss Alumni China gathering and offers a platform for this large community to connect. The gathering is an opportunity for the alumni to share some fond memories from their time studying in Switzerland and engage with new members of the community. We hope to provide a quality setting for the alumni to connect and strengthen the ties between them, thereby spreading Swiss values.

If you cannot find your chapter, please contact Camille Burki, our Head of Communications: [email protected]
