Each year, European University Cyprus & Cyprus College Alumni Association celebrates the diverse achievements of our alumni with a suite of alumni awards. These awards recognise alumni who have accomplished outstanding success in their fields and made exemplary contributions to their community. Our goal is to support and encourage excellence amongst the business and alumni community.
Alumni award nominations for all awards are accepted year-round. In the event that you wish to nominate a candidate, please address your recommendation at alumni@euc.ac.cy or e.markantoni@euc.ac.cy.
