VESUV Alumni

Association of former student representatives and board members of student associations

Vesuv

After a slow initial phase, the VESUV has now sprung to life and hard at work creating dialogue between current and former student representatives and providing advice and support.

The VESUV organises events, aimed specifically at its members. It also organises events, intended to encourage contact with students who are currently active in order to promote the acquisition of knowledge and to raise awareness amongst the next generation of student representatives.

After-work beer

Once a semester, the VESUV organises an after-work beer. There is no fixed agenda and no obligations, but the VESUV buys the first beer for everyone who shows up. The VESUV board come along and welcome all VESUV members who want to network with one another, reminisce about the old days or get to know some new “old” faces.

Fondue evening

Every autumn we meet to share a leisurely fondue. Alongside the eating element, we always like to visit something or someone at ETH beforehand. For example, we have learnt all about the new Minergie building LEE and marvelled at walking robots.

Barbecue

We always make our annual general meeting brief and to the point so afterwards we barbecue a few steaks and burgers and enjoy a relaxed evening together.

ETH Alumni are people who have completed an education at ETH Zürich or who have spent at least four semesters at ETH working as members of the academic faculty or as post-​docs. Click here for more information on the "Alumni" status.
ETH alumni are entitled to a membership with the ETH Alumni Association. Members enjoy various benefits that are not available to non-​members.

The membership fee is CHF 70/year. Upon registration, memberships in up to five affiliate organisations can be added free of charge. However, certain affiliate organisations charge additional fees to fund their annual programme. Alumni who do not wish to join a member organisation are automatically registered as direct members.

After graduating from ETH Zurich, graduates are automatically registered as members. However, a membership is free of charge until the age of 28 (year of birth). Thereafter, a membership fee is automatically charged, regardless of the graduate's age at graduation.
