"As a university, we have a special responsibility," said Prof. Dr. Julia Kormann in her welcome speech. “We must pay attention – to social developments, but also to each other. Change is here to stay. The good news is that if we embrace it and actively shape it, it will help us move forward. The Germany Scholarship stands for exactly that: taking responsibility, shaping the future and finding solutions together. You are our best students, you are committed. Be the ones who shape the future together with us. Our mission as a university of applied sciences is to understand the challenges of the future and translate them into solutions. Embrace this mindset and be creators.”
After a champagne reception, she presented the scholarships, which will run from September 2025 to the end of August 2026. An international student from Pakistan was also honoured for her achievements. Accompanied by music from Jo! Loop, a one-man band, the scholarship holders and company representatives ended the evening with a relaxed get-together.
