Abstract: The absence of structured communication between alumni and students continues to limit mentorship, professional networking, and career development opportunities within academic institutions. To address this gap, this paper presents the design and analysis of an Alumni Interaction Platform (AIP)—a centralized web-based system that fosters continuous engagement through mentorship programs, job and internship postings, discussion forums, and real-time communication tools. The proposed platform integrates modern web technologies such as React.js, Node.js, and Firebase to provide a responsive interface, secure data handling, and seamless connectivity. By implementing role-based access control and cloud-based architecture, the system ensures scalability, user privacy, and efficient data synchronization. The study evaluates existing solutions and identifies the technological and social challenges in deploying such systems at institutional scale. This work aims to transform fragmented alumni networks into an organized, technology-driven ecosystem that enhances student outcomes and institutional collaboration.
