ITC Alumni Community

Become a high-skilled geospatial professional

It may be one, 10 or even 60 years since they left, but ITC’s former students still have a strong bond with the Institute and the Netherlands, and still keep in touch with ITC and friends from their student days.

ITC alumni belong to a worldwide community of over 25,000 individuals, who together form an extensive network of international contacts, a network that includes United Nations organisations, universities, research groups, resources survey and map production services, and various international professional associations. The ITC alumni community is an unique combination of students, staff and alumni and this is a crucial asset in serving society. We cherish the power of our worldwide alumni network, leveraging it for the advancement of science, and for addressing societal challenges. 

The alumni network is brought closer to our daily activities by involving them as local experts to contribute to our academic programs, and as problem owner in the context of challenge-based learning. Engagement with the alumni network is also done by involving alumni as private sector partners in our institutional strengthening activities and projects. Every batch that graduates will enlarge our impact globally and our graduates are proud ambassadors wherever they go.
