Alumni

Welcome to the ECE Alumni webpage. The purpose of this page is to keep you up-to-date on ECE news and events, and let you connect with each other.

There are over 7,000 ECE graduates in the Greater Toronto area alone. Many of you are scattered over the globe, making you a truly global community. Being separated by time and distance can make it a challenge to stay in touch with old classmates and friends. To help you re-connect we have created sections of this webpage for each year, or decade. As we hear from more alumni we'll add more pages. If you have a story, photo or announcement you would like to share, please send it to susan.grant@utoronto.ca Be sure to include the year you graduated in your message.
