Alumni Symposia

On September 17th, 2022, the working group of Prof. C. Schneider organized an autumn symposium for the first time as part of an alumni meeting. Four speakers from the current working group presented the results of their research work. Furthermore, the program was framed by lectures by our alumni, who presented their companies, their work areas and their experiences. This event was rounded up by the evening barbecue: a nice opportunity to socialize in a relaxed manner and to remember the past. This symposium was a great pleasure for us and we are therefore looking forward to the next event with great anticipation.
