IN PUBLICA COMMODA – FOR THE GOOD OF ALL reads the inscription on the Foundation Medal of the Georg-August-University of 1737. It is this motto which defines the guiding principles of our university: “Georgia Augusta” is committed to the critical spirit of the age of Enlightenment, characterized by scientific pragmatism and a sense of reality, and aware of its academic and social responsibility. The University of göttingen takes an active role in the development of a more human, tolerant and peaceful world. Dismantling all gender-, ethnic-, culture-, social- and religion specific discriminations, it contributes to the achievement of equal rights for all.

These guiding principles of “Georgia Augusta” do also apply to Alumni Göttingen, the international association of former and current students, graduates, staff, friends and supporters of the University of Göttingen, comprising all fields of study.

1. As members of the University of Göttingen, members of Alumni Göttingen actively advocate for the aims and the further development of “Georgia Augusta”. At the same time they participate in all important events of academic life, in science, research and teaching. In order to promote scientific innovation and the university’s position as one of the eminent research universities in Europe in a future-oriented manner which triggers public awareness, members of Alumni Göttingen bring in their ideas and experiences from their professional life, as well as their contacts to the University of Göttingen.

2. Members of Alumni Göttingen support students and graduates in organizing their education and shaping their future. Moreover, Alumni Göttingen serves its members with the opportunity to maintain their friendships and to cultivate their contacts with other people of different ages and nationalities committed to the University of Göttingen.

3. Alumni Göttingen is a network of excellence and experience on a national and international level which has to be constantly expanded. Its members employ their knowledge and experience to the benefit of our university but also to a mutual benefit of all members.

4. Alumni Göttingen works in the service of its members, as well as the entire university community. Each alumna and each alumnus simultaneously promotes the motto of “Georgia Augusta” and profits from it.
