AI-Powered Alumni Portal: Connect, Learn, Thrive

Abstract

Educational institutions often struggle to maintain strong connections with their alumni, leading to missed opportunities for career development, mentorship, and community engagement. Existing alumni association systems generally lack personalization and advanced technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), resulting in limited networking options for both alumni and current students. Traditional solutions rely on basic databases or social media groups that are insufficient for fostering meaningful interactions, thereby limiting sustained engagement and career support. To address these gaps, this project proposes an AI-powered Alumni Association platform designed to enhance personalized engagement, drawing on insights from survey papers that highlight the role of intelligent systems in educational networking. The platform will integrate AI-driven functionalities such as personalized networking recommendations, a job portal, donation mechanisms, and success story tracking to create dynamic and valuable interactions. Additionally, features like a comprehensive alumni directory and feedback system will enable continuous improvement, adapting to users’ evolving needs. The goal is to establish a supportive ecosystem where alumni and students can engage in lifelong connections with the institution, promoting a culture of mentorship, career development, and community contribution while strengthening institutional bonds.
