They threw up their hats in happiness!

"Dear graduates, the day has come!" With these words, University Rector Prof. Dr Dr Alexis Papathanassis introduced his speech to those who have made it: 105 graduates from the two faculties celebrated their successful completion of their Bachelor's or Master's degree programme with friends, family, fellow students and professors. At the end of the winter semester 2023/24, Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences said goodbye to a total of 341 young people. Despite the rail strike, many of them reached the festively decorated event hall and toasted their success. "Your long journey of endeavour, sacrifice and commitment has come to an end," said the Rector, bidding them a solemn farewell and adding: "Only until you embark on your next journey."
Some of the graduates have already entered professional life; some have decided to continue their studies to obtain a Master's degree. (Translated with deepL)
