We hope that our students get the most out of their time at Silwood Park, and our commitment to our students continues beyond graduation.
Being an Imperial Silwood Park alumnus means being part of a global network – a distinguished group of leaders, problem solvers and innovators. Our alumni team and global networks organise events, and provide support, advice, opportunities, services and benefits for alumni at varied stages of their careers.
