Join us online for a UCL Global Gathering - a unique opportunity to connect with graduates from across UCL’s vibrant international community.
We are running two sessions on Tuesday 6 December, hosted online via Zoom, from 2pm-3.30pm and 6pm-7.30pm (both GMT UK time).
UCL's Alumni Relations team will facilitate rounds of speed networking in breakout rooms, so you can meet different people and enjoy meaningful conversations.
“It was really fun meeting alumni from different walks of life, UCL degrees and paths in lives to mine. I met someone in Singapore who I would love to visit one day. World becomes smaller when you are connected by the same uni. - Gokce Narin, Global Gathering 2021 attendee
