Radboud University is putting the spotlight on alumni who inspire, make an impact and proudly represent our university. They will be the face of our alumni community for a year. They will also choose which impactful project at the university is so close to their hearts that it will receive the €20,000 prize from the Radboud Foundation. This could be a great research project or an initiative that enriches student life.
