About Our Alumni

Alumni

GRIPS has trained more than 5,400 public policy leaders and researchers who live and work in 117 countries. They form a diverse community that the School continues to support and draw support from. Our graduates have gone on to become ministers, ambassadors, central bank (deputy) governors and, of course, government officials and policy researchers and analysts, all working to actively shape policies and make a difference around the world.

Wherever you go, chances are that you will find a GRIPS alumnus, working in ministries and government agencies, in universities or multilateral organizations.

As our community continues to grow, in close cooperation with local alumni groups we regularly organize events and facilitate gatherings that provide alumni with meaningful social, intellectual and professional networking opportunities.

GRIPS Alumni Platform is now in operation!

We are pleased to announce that GRIPS has commenced operation of a new exchange platform for GRIPS alumni.

This platform replaces the old alumni database system.

Through this exchange platform, we shall provide information on events such as alumni reunions; and collect and disseminate information about recent activities of GRIPS and its faculty members and about the status of our alumni.

We hope this platform will serve as a tool for connecting GRIPS alumni with GRIPS students and staff and faculty members, and among the alumni themselves, thus contributing to the ongoing expansion and vitalization of the GRIPS network.

We kindly ask that you register on GRIPS Alumni Platform at https://grips.alumnet.jp/

You will receive an email from the email address below, containing a guide to the new system used by GRIPS.

Please follow the instructions in the email to register for the GRIPS Alumni Platform.
