Alumni – what does that actually mean?

The word alumni is the plural of the word alumnus and comes from Latin. The verb alere means to nourish or bring up and therefore an alumnus is a pupil or foster son in the sense of the word’s origin. The pupils of an alumni school, a medieval monastic school, were also referred to as alumni. In modern German usage, the term alumni is used for former students of a university or other educational institution.

We also refer to graduates and former students of SMT and the former Stuttgart Institute of Management and Technology (SIMT) and Business School Memmingen as alumni. All alumni are cordially invited to stay in touch with SMT, take part in our further education and training programs, join the SMT Alumni Network and get involved in our network.

The SMT Alumni Networkintroduces itself

  • In 1998, various Steinbeis students founded the SIMT Alumni e.V. as a politically and denominationally neutral association. It was named after the Stuttgart Institute of Management and Technology (SIMT). Over the years, other graduates of the project competence courses of the School of Management and Technology (SMT) at Steinbeis University and the Steinbeis Center of Management and Technology (SCMT) as well as the Stuttgart Institute of Management and Technology (SIMT) and the Business School Memmingen joined forces in this alumni association. The latter two institutions no longer exist under these names today, but the Stuttgart Institute of Management and Technology (SIMT) was initially the namesake of the association for a long time.

  • Since 2019, the Alumni Association has been active under the changed name Steinbeis SMT Alumni e.V. in order to be closer to the students and graduates of the School of Management and Technology (SMT) and to express this directly in the name. In addition to the Alumni Association, the SMT Alumni Network also offers many further education opportunities and events for former students.

  • In order to be able to centrally manage the organization and thus the offers for alumni, the offers of Steinbeis SMT Alumni e.V. and the SMT Alumni Network were brought together under one roof. Today, the SMT Alumni Network offers all SMT graduates a versatile platform to maintain contact with fellow students even after graduation, to continue their education and to be part of a constantly growing network. The central point of contact for all alumni is the School of Management and Technology’s Alumni Management.

    We look forward to a lively exchange with you in the SMT Alumni Network!
