Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine Alumni Weekend
Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine Alumni Weekend
AUGUST 19-21, 2026
The Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine Alumni Association invites all members of our alumni community—MDs, Physician Assistants, residents, fellows, and former faculty—back to campus for Alumni Weekend, August 19–21, 2026, a time to reconnect, reflect, and celebrate the paths that began here.
Whether you are marking your 10th, 25th, or 50th reunion—or returning as part of the Half Century Society—this weekend honors not only your time as a student, but the impact you’ve made in medicine, science, and your communities since.
Join classmates and colleagues for meaningful moments of connection, recognition, and discovery as we celebrate where your journey has taken you—and the role you continue to play in shaping the future of health, locally and around the world.
All events are complimentary for alumni and a guest, ensuring a welcoming experience for our entire community.
If you're celebrating your reunion and you're interested in encouraging connection and participation amongst your classmates, contact the alumni relations team at SOMalumni@hsc.utah.edu or call 801-581-8591.
