Bachelor's and Master's Graduation Ceremony 2025

On Friday, June 27, 2025, the Faculty of Business, Economics and Social Sciences bid farewell to its Bachelor's and Master's graduates in a festive setting. Around 1,000 guests – including graduates, their families and friends, as well as faculty members and staff – attended the two ceremonies in the Audimax.

The event began with the Master's ceremony, featuring a welcome address by Dean Prof. Dr. Jörg Schiller, followed by the Bachelor's ceremony led by Vice Dean of Studies Prof. Dr. Benjamin Jung. Stephanie Fleischmann from Alumni Hohenheim e.V. hosted both events and, together with the program directors, presented congratulatory letters to the graduates.

A total of 218 Bachelor's and 145 Master's degrees were celebrated. The top graduates were honored with awards sponsored by Deloitte and Communication Consultants. The 2024 HMD Award for outstanding student engagement was presented to the Kreditwirtschaftliches Colloquium Hohenheim.

The event was jointly organized by the WiSo Faculty and the Alumni Hohenheim e.V. association. Musical accompaniment was provided by the Wildblech trombone quartet. The evening concluded with a celebratory reception in the Bio-Foyer, featuring sparkling wine, finger food, and good conversations.

The WiSo Faculty and Alumni Hohenheim e.V. extend their warmest congratulations and best wishes for continued success in the graduates’ future careers or further studies.

The Faculty would like to thank Alumni Hohenheim e.V., the WiSo student council and the sponsors of the prizes for their great support.
