The Development and Alumni Engagement teams are part of the Division of University Advancement at Stevens, which builds meaningful relationships with alumni, donors, partners and friends in support of the university’s mission. Within University Advancement, our teams focus on philanthropic partnerships and alumni connections, while communications teams strengthen the visibility and reputation of Stevens through brand management, digital strategy, marketing, public relations, strategic communications and corporate, government and community relations work.

Our teams provide opportunities for the Stevens community to reunite with classmates and friends, network with industry partners, make an impact on campus and remain updated on recent achievements.
