MBA Class of 2022 back on campus to celebrate their graduation

On Friday we were able to welcome our graduates from the MBA class of 2022 on campus to celebrate their great achievement. Congratulations to all our former students who graduated from the MBA International Management program at Pforzheim University!
Together we recalled two years of studies that, due to Covid, had to take place online over longer periods. It was a challenging time for the students as well as for faculty and staff. And yet, it was impressive to see how the MBA students dealt with this unexpected situation throughout the two years of their studies, supported each other, grew together as a group and made the best of the situation.
Hard work, the acquisition of essential soft and hard skills, inspiring encounters within the `Guest in Classroom´ or `Alumni meet current Students´ series, lots of networking (some of it online), intercultural experiences within the batch, memorable excursions, and many unforgettable moments have characterized the two years of studies in the MBA.
After welcoming the students and their guests, Prof. Dr. Harald Strotmann, program director of the MBA International Management reviewed the past two years, before handing over the official MBA certificates and transcripts together with the traditional MBA mugs, that are showing the individual pictures of all students of the class of 2022. The informal part of the graduation closed with two   short videos recalling some funny events and milestones of the two years of study in the MBA.
After everyone had toasted to their graduation, it was finally time for the graduation photos, where, in a nice tradition, the graduates could toss their hats in the air.
The official part of the celebrations for all graduates from the Business School and School of Engineering at Pforzheim University, took place again at the CCP. After a break of three and a half years due to Corona, 470 graduates as well as more than 1000 relatives filled the Great Hall for this very special farewell.
The graduation evening ended with a social gathering in a nearby restaurant where the new alumni and their guests, the professors and MBA team members could catch up.

Dear new MBA alumni,
It was a real pleasure having you with us in our MBA program and to watch how you were growing personally and professionally during the course of your studies!
All the best for you, good success for your professional future and KEEP IN TOUCH!  

Sincerely,
Your MBA Team
