The University of Illinois Asian American Alumni Network (AAAN) is about pride, friendship, connections and service. Since officially affiliating with the broader University of Illinois Alumni Association in 2005 and launching the Network in 2006, AAAN has already grown to over 300 members worldwide and has opened satellite chapters in multiple cities in the U.S., including San Diego, SF Bay Area, Seattle, and Washington D.C. Among other activities in 2006, AAAN hosted and co-sponsored business networking events and partnered with the Urbana-Champaign campus to involve alumni in its student mentorship program.
The mission of AAAN is to strive for the betterment of the University of Illinois as an agency for education, public service, and social progress and to provide a space where interested Asian American alumni can contribute to and become involved with the University of Illinois, other alumni, and the broader Asian American community.
We look forward to helping you stay connected to and involved with your alma mater, fellow graduates, new students, and broader communities.
