Save the date! 

On the 13th of November, the nominees for the Bekader Thesis Awards will present their work. The nominees, who delivered excellent theses in the last year, will present their thesis and their main findings. All attendees of the event are invited to vote to select the two award winners, one from each program (BA & IEM). The winners will be announced during a short award ceremony and they will receive a recognition, appreciation and a prize.

The main objectives of this event are: to connect alumni with excellent research performed at our alma mater and with the graduates behind it. The program of the event will be concluded with a happy hour where alumni, Stress-members, faculty members can meet and mingle.
