Since that time, the association is active in supporting a vital exchange of experience between former graduates as well as current students on energy-related issues. The associations mission is “Connect-Support-Educate” to create an enduring network of former students within the European energy industry.
Our Activities
lecture Series
The Alumni Association organizes the annual Alumni Lecture Series. Between eight to ten distinguished alumni speakers give first hand insights about key changes in the energy industry today and their effect on corporations, politics and society. We invite all current students and alumni to gain a practical edge, learn about possible career paths following the degree and to connect with a strong alumni network.

meeba events
Over the past five years, we have had the chance to connect our MEEBA Alumni through several events. In 2018, we celebrated the 10 year anniversary of the study program together with the Verbundnetzgas AG at their Headquarter in Leipzig. One year later, we hosted – in the storied halls of the MGIMO chess rooms – our first Alumni meeting in Moscow. With representatives from the German embassy (Under Secretary Thomas Graf), the MGIMO University (Vice-Rector Prof. Malgin) and with our Sponsors (Rosneft Germany, EEX Group, VNG, Exxeta), we discussed current and future challenges of the energy industry. The evening was filled with delicious food and exciting dinner table discussions. We are looking forward to hosting next year’s get-together in Berlin on lake Wannsee at the Bildungsstätte Schwanenwerder (April 30th – May 3rd 2020).
