GREETINGS FROM THE INTERIM DEAN

We may all come to public health on a different path but the destination is the same – UMDNJ-SPH. To help our alumni stay connected to our School and each other, we established the Alumni Association in 2010.  All UMDNJ-SPH graduates are automatically members of this Association, which does not charge dues. The Alumni Association is striving to provide opportunities for continuing education and networking, as well as to serve as a catalyst for connecting alumni with students, faculty and constituencies on local, regional and national levels.

The Office of Student and Alumni Affairs is strategically positioned to act as a liaison between the 1,300+ alumni and our students, faculty and staff. The Office fosters connections by engaging alumni and strengthening institutional relationships.
