The University of Bath has more than 150,000 alumni around the world, many of whom have gone on to achieve great success in their careers. As part of our ambition to reach the top 100 in the QS World University Rankings, we are asking you to get involved and share alumni success stories with us.

The Advancement Office maintains a comprehensive database on alumni and their achievements, however we are reliant on alumni (and staff) sharing this with us, so we may be missing out on some of our amazing alumni accomplishments.

We are particularly interested in hearing about those alumni who fit the following criteria:

  • Award Winners – high-profile international awards that have been active for more than five years
  • Business Leaders – C-level executives and board members at publicly listed companies
  • Charity or NGO leaders – C-level executives and board members of NGO and charities
  • Political Leaders – current or former government ministers
  • Sustainability champions – alumni whose work tangibly relates to driving sustainability initiatives

Please submit your newsworthy alumni using this form.

Every quarter we’ll share a profile of one of our notable alumni. This quarter we’re delighted to feature Nik Sekhran (BSc Hons Economics 1990), Chief Conservation Officer for the World Wildlife Fund USA.

Nik Sekhran is the Chief Conservation Officer for World Wildlife Fund US – and previously the Director for Sustainable Development for the United Nations Development Programme – and has dedicated his life to finding solutions to some of the most complex challenges facing our planet today.
