The true measure of a university’s greatness is found in the achievements of its alumni. Empire State University is globally recognized for graduates who are leaders and innovators in their fields.

To honor our graduates, the Alumni Student Federation Board of Governors established the Alumni Awards in 2016. These awards recognize outstanding graduates who have made a lasting impact on society and SUNY Empire through their professional, philanthropic, or volunteer accomplishments. The awards illustrate the value of our academic programs and showcase our pride in SUNY Empire.

The award categories are:

Emerging Leader
Veteran Service
Community Impact
Distinguished Leader

We will be taking nominations for the 2025 awards in early May.
