Events

 

We host events for alumni and friends throughout the world to network, socialize and connect with fellow alumni and to catch up with what's going on at your alma mater.

Here you'll find information on a variety of events. These events include opportunities for professional development, networking, family activities, entertainment, education and more. Check out what's going on!

At the heart of MUNalum Days, reunions provide the perfect backdrop to reunite with friends and past professors, reminisce about the good times and stay up-to-date with what is happening at Memorial.

Check out the upcoming 2023 Reunions here.

Reunions can be academic or affinity based, and can celebrate specific years or other important milestones.

Re-engage, re-kindle, re-live, re-connect.
