In June 2000, the University held its 25th Silver Anniversary Commencement Exercises celebrating the 897 new graduates that made up the class of 2000. The Silver Anniversary provided an opportunity to reminisce and pay tribute to Birzeit's rich history and the nearly 8000 individuals who graduated from the University since its first commencement exercise in 1976. In a special celebration, the University also honored the 68 alumni of the first graduating class of Birzeit. Birzeit graduates have always played a prominent role in the development of the Palestinian society. Many have gone on to become experts in their fields, through either continuing their education here or abroad or working in the public and private sectors locally, regionally and internationally.

Are you a Graduate of Birzeit University?
In an exciting new project aimed at collecting information on all of our Alumni, Birzeit would like to know where you are now. The aim of the project is to collect information about the largest number possible of graduates of Birzeit University and look for ways in which we can together ensure the future development of our University. For although, some of you may not have been to Birzeit in a long time, we are confident that part of you will always remain with us. Please send an email to alumni@birzeit.edu and inform friends and family who are also BZU graduates about this project.
