Homecoming: Hall of Fame Awards and Dinner

Each year, the College of Global Futures hosts a dinner and awards ceremony during ASU’s Homecoming weekend. Alumni who have been nominated by fellow alums and faculty receive Hall of Fame awards for their accomplishments and outstanding work in their field. Nominations for awards open up two months prior to Homecoming weekend. Homecoming typically occurs during October or November, so follow the alumni newsletter for the date announcement. All CGF Alumni are welcome to attend! Questions about Hall of Fame nominations or the event? Email [email protected].


Alumni Mixers

We offer alumni mixers 2-3 times a year to provide graduates the chance to get together and network at local establishments. We love to welcome our new alumni with a mixer in the summer as well as host a gathering for alumni attending the annual GreenBiz Conference in Phoenix. Keep an eye on the newsletter and LinkedIn groups for updates on upcoming opportunities. We hope to see you at our next mixer!


Career-related events and workshops

The Career Services team at the College of Global Futures (CGF) hosts a range of professional development events for both students and alumni. Our annual highlight is ‘Career Exploration Day: Discover Careers with Purpose and Impact’. This signature event brings together students, alumni, and employers in a dynamic forum, fostering connections and conversations around career paths with real impact and purpose.

To view upcoming events, visit the CGF Events page and visit the CGF Career Services YouTube channel for recordings of past career related programming.

We love to feature alumni at these events either as panelists or moderators, so email us at [email protected] if you’re interested in getting involved!
