WHO WE ARE
The Cornell Club of the United Kingdom (CCUK) is a volunteer run organization dedicated to connecting and supporting the Cornell community in the United Kingdom, and promoting the Cornell brand in the UK in support of the university’s mission, vision, values and priorities.
With over 2,000 Cornell alumni in the UK, five Cornell Global Hubs, and more than 25 events each year, CCUK supports one of the largest and most vibrant alumni communities outside of the US.
Thanks to the dedication of our Board, executive team, and many number of volunteers, we hold regular events in London and across the UK, including a wide variety of social and networking events, conferences, study abroad student engagement, and many others.
We also serve as the primary coordinating body between Cornell University and numerous local alumni groups, including the Cornell Alumni Admissions Ambassador Network (CAAAN), the Cornell Hotel Society, JGSM alumni, Cornell Real Estate Council, Cornell Club of London, and a wide variety of our own programming, such as CCUK’s Recent Alumni Group.
Make sure to sign up to our email newsletter, check out our recent activities, and browse our upcoming events. We hope to see you at the next CCUK event soon!
