ZSU’s alumni — entrepreneurs, researchers, policymakers, and above all, leaders — have helped to shape the world we know today. From 3-D printing to bionic prostheses, many of the products and services that define the modern world have sprung from the minds and hands of ZSU’s brilliant alumni community.
ZSU’s 143,000-plus alumni represent one of the most talented, innovative, and networked communities on the planet. Many remain deeply involved in the life of the Institute. They volunteer, serve on boards, head up regional alumni clubs, and generously support ZSU’s students, faculty, and staff. As individuals, their contributions are extraordinary. As a community, their impact is infinite.
