Two ways to connect alumni with current students and each other!

The Official Florida Gulf Coast University Alumni Association Group -  FGCU Alumni Association has an official alumni group on LinkedIn, with nearly three thousand people. Join the group

Share and seek job opportunities, find out about professional development events and connect with fellow graduates.

Eagle Mentor Program - We connect students with professionals to create career-focused ties. 

Students are steered toward professional success by mentors who share real-world perspectives, information on career paths and the general wisdom they have acquired through life experience.

Anyone can participate, regardless of where they live, but mentors are asked to commit to the program for a minimum of one year.

Leadership Academy 

The six-month program, which runs from April-September, shows alumni and community members how FGCU takes the lead in meeting social, economic and entertainment demands of Southwest Florida by getting unique, behind-the-scenes access to academic, athletics and arts programs. 

Professional Development Webinars

We hosted over 30 free professional development webinars in 2023! We encourage you to share with alumni (or watch yourself). Typically offered twice a month, the speakers range from bestselling authors to renowned leadership experts. Watch a webinar here.
