The Educational Role of Alumni Resources in the Adult Success of Students—Research on Strategies for Alumni Work in Universities Based on Photosynthesis Model

Abstract

Alumni resources refer to the sum total of various resources such as human, material, financial, informational, and cultural assets possessed by alumni groups. Alumni have extensive networks and information resources in different fields, including academia, business, and research institutions. They possess profound professional knowledge and rich practical experience, enabling them to bring cutting-edge industry trends and case studies back to their alma mater. This helps build a bridge for talent development between universities and higher education institutions, enhancing teaching quality. Just like the energy conversion model in photosynthesis, this process establishes a mutually beneficial ecosystem among universities, alumni, and students. It forms a virtuous cycle where alumni resources promote student development, student development drives university progress, and university progress boosts alumni growth.
