Dear Students
In February, I took over from Christoph Schaltegger as Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Management (WF). Christoph Schaltegger has led the faculty since 2015 as its founding dean. He deserves great thanks for his valuable work for the faculty.
The current semester allows us to live the personal university, interactive teaching formats and mutual exchange appropriately again. Nevertheless, we remain vigilant, take care of each other and protect vulnerable persons. With a watchful eye, it is also advisable to look at the approaching registration for exams. This starts tomorrow, Thursday, and you will find all the important information below. To ensure that everything runs smoothly, it is worth reading them carefully.
I wish you a good semester and much success in the exams!
Warm regards Prof. Dr. Simon Lüchinger Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Management
