WELCOME to the new MBA students

The Spring 2026 semester has officially begun, and we are delighted to welcome a new cohort of MBA students to our university community in Pforzheim. This semester’s group brings together talented professionals from around the world, including students from India, Kenya, Iran, Lebanon, Turkey, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Ethiopia, Singapoore and the United States. Their diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives will contribute greatly to the collaborative and international learning environment that defines our program. 
The semester began with an introductory welcome session where new students had the opportunity to meet faculty members, the MBA team, and their fellow classmates. During the session, students were introduced to the program structure, upcoming academic activities, and the many opportunities available to them throughout their studies.  
Beyond the classroom, students will have the chance to connect with peers, engage with industry partners, and participate in networking events and guest lectures throughout the semester.  
We are excited to see this new group of students become part of our vibrant international community. We wish them a successful and inspiring semester filled with learning, collaboration, and new experiences.
