Ambassadors of the Next Generation!
Alumni Association
SIMATS ensures that former students are always connected through the Alumni Association. The alumni members meet on a regular basis and always stay connected to each other as well as with the institution. Our Alumni are placed all over the world holding high positions in various institutions, companies, organisations etc and as such they play a vital role in curriculum and skill development at SIMATS by giving regular feedback on the necessities of knowledge and skills of the current world in their respective domains.
SIMATS has facilitated each of its constituent colleges to have their individual alumni associations in order to enable the alumni to be better connected in their own domains. Thus the students of Dentistry, Medicine, Engineering, Law, Management, Physiotherapy and Nursing have their own alumni associations. Each of the Alumni associations have individual alumni coordinators who help to keep the association members connected at all levels.
The alumni are always updated with the events happening in the institution through the newsletters describing the various activities at saveetha like that shared with them on a regular basis. Besides this each of the alumni associations have their own facebook pages to enable constant contact and interaction between the members

The alumni association also serves as a medium for the alumni to give back to the university. The alumni of the various associations have been very generously contributed financially for setting up or renovating infrastructure like libraries, gardens etc. They have also contributed by donating books, journals and equipment to their respective colleges. However the most important contribution of the alumni is the enrichment they bring to the current students by conducting seminars, workshops and other advisory and motivational talks on their real world experiences. The alumni also benefit the present students by providing them with job placements either directly or indirectly by enabling campus selections in the institution.
The alumni contributes greatly in curriculum enrichment of the curriculum. The various additional courses that have formed an integral part of the present syllabus are a result of their representation in the Board of Studies of the institution which frames the curriculum. The alumni also facilitate MOUs with other institutions and industry to enable research, student exchange internships and industry entrepreneurship experience to the present students.
The Saveetha Old students association(SOSA) of the dental alumni meet every year in the months of August and October. The meetings are filled with fun, interaction with current students in terms of talks, CDE programs etc and interaction with faculty on the current requirements of curriculum improvement. Former faculty are also invited and felicitated by the alumni as a mark of gratitude towards their teachers during these meetings. Similar meetings of other alumni associations of SIMATS happen yearly filled with educational and fun activities.
