The IKV alumni network
Great network for successful careers in the plastics industry
The IKV alumni network connects graduates and doctoral researchers of the institute who work internationally in a wide variety of companies in the plastics industry after their time at IKV. The network offers an ideal platform for exchange and effectively supports recent graduates in embarking on a successful professional career. Through personal contacts and recommendations, graduates quickly find access to potential employers and vice versa.
Advantages of the IKV alumni network
Both graduates and companies benefit from the alumni network. The close connection between former and current IKV employees makes it easier for companies to recruit new talent. The institute regularly organizes recruiting events, such as themed afternoons where graduates talk about their careers, to promote this exchange and open up career opportunities for students and academics after their time at IKV.
A large proportion of plastics engineers in management positions at German companies were trained at IKV, which makes the alumni network an important link to industry – especially for career starters.

– also outside the profession
The IKV alumni network is more than just a career springboard. It strengthens cohesion beyond professional life. At various industry events, regular alumni evenings or the popular alumni hikes – which take place twice a year at different locations in Germany – contact remains lively and the exchange is intensive.
