Presidential Board welcomes doctoral researchers of the year 2023 and their supervisors
On Thursday, 7 December 2023, Prof. Dr Stefan Herzig, President of TH Köln and Prof. Dr Klaus Becker, Vice President for Research and Knowledge Transfer, invited the doctoral graduates of 2023 and their supervisors to the Senate Hall of TH Köln to personally congratulate them on their success.
Prof. Dr Herzig welcomed those present to this year's third reception in a small, personal setting and emphasised the achievements of the doctoral candidates, which go far beyond their contribution to their subject areas. Prof Dr Becker also thanked the doctoral supervisors for accompanying the researchers on their journey. Thanks to the quality of the applied research at TH Köln and the successful cooperation with universities in Germany and abroad in the supervision of doctorates, it has been possible to complete a doctorate at TH Köln this year under the independent doctoral programme of the Graduate School for Applied Research in North Rhine-Westphalia (PK NRW).
The five honoured doctoral graduates from the Faculties of Civil Engineering and Environmental Technology, Spatial Development and Infrastructure Systems, Applied Natural Sciences, Automotive Systems and Production as well as Process Engineering, Energy and Mechanical Systems presented their diverse doctoral topics and further career paths to those present, some of which are at TH Köln and some outside the university, and provided a great deal to talk about at the champagne reception that followed in the Senate Hall.
