Following a welcome address by Prof. Dr Alexander Urban, Dean of the Faculty of Business and Management, the guests were given fascinating insights into the development of the university and the faculty. The alumni were amazed by the changes the university has undergone since their student days: “Personally, I’m impressed by how OTH Regensburg has developed. Congratulations on this progress, and I very much hope we’ll stay in touch and keep in contact!” said alumna Clara Neumayer.
Between university and the world of work: professional discussion on current developments
Prof. Dr Christian Dach then provided a professional stimulus with his presentation entitled ‘How is AI changing the world of work?’. He presented an AI tool, designed in collaboration with students, which is used to practise sales and marketing scenarios. The alumni contributed their own experiences from various industries and fields of work to the discussion. This led to a lively exchange on the opportunities, challenges and future prospects of artificial intelligence in the world of work.
Old memories and new impressions
A guided tour of the campus allowed guests to experience first-hand the architectural and academic development of OTH Regensburg, rounding off the afternoon. At the same time, the event offered numerous opportunities for personal conversations and reunions with former fellow students, which were subsequently celebrated in style at the Schlossbrauhaus in Regensburg.
Positive feedback from participants underlines the success of the gathering
“It was a brilliant day with interesting conversations and a chance to reminisce about the fun times of the past.”
“Thank you very much for the excellent organisation and the brilliant programme of events.”
“It was great fun and I was delighted to see so many people again.”
“It was so special and wonderful to be with you all at the weekend. It’s incredible what a place can do for people and the energy that networks provide.”
The event was organised by the Student Lifecycle Centre at OTH Regensburg. Through initiatives such as this alumni gathering, the university fosters exchange between former and current members of the university community and strengthens its growing alumni network.
