Celebrating 150 Years of the Stevens Alumni Association
Dear Fellow Alumni,
This year, we proudly celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Stevens Alumni Association (SAA). Since its founding, the SAA has brought generations of alumni together, fostering community, collaboration and lifelong connections to Stevens.
On July 1, 1876, 25 newly graduated mechanical engineers gathered to form the SAA. From that small group, we have grown into a global community of nearly 60,000 alumni. While much has changed since that first meeting, our purpose has remained constant: to cultivate connection, support one another and remain part of something larger than ourselves.
For 150 years, our alumni network has helped propel Stevens forward. Each generation defines what it means to be a Stevens engineer, scientist, business leader or creative professional. In doing so, we carry forward the spirit of Stevens in ways that reflect both our individual paths and shared foundation.
As SAA president, I believe engagement should feel authentic and meaningful. Connection can take many forms, from volunteering and mentoring to philanthropy, events or simply reaching out to a fellow graduate. The SAA continues to expand opportunities for involvement so that every member of our community can stay connected in ways that feel personal and purposeful.
I’m truly inspired by the level of commitment Stevens alumni bring to giving back and paying it forward. Whether supporting scholarships, advancing research, opening doors for the next generation or representing Stevens around the world, our alumni strengthen the university year after year.
As we honor this milestone, I am reminded that the strength of the SAA lies in its people. Together, we celebrate our past and look ahead with confidence to the next 150 years.
