Alumni at RVCE 2026 — CollegeAndFees

**By Sakshi Sonal** RVCE''s 28-city global alumni network spans corporate leadership, civil services, defence services, and sports. The institution-run alumni hub is at [rvce.edu.in/alumni](https://rvce.edu.in/alumni) and connects to the [Alma Connect platform](https://rvce.almaconnect.com). The 16 individual notable-alumni pages on rvce.edu.in publish only name + role + photo — the deeper biographies live on Alma Connect (member-gated).
