A Message from the former Bavarian Premier

Congratulations to Augsburg!

New challenges require innovative answers – and such an answer is given by the Elite Network of Bavaria. A glance at the curriculum of the ready-to-launch Elite Graduate Program “Finance & Information Management” shows: here, you get down to business. In four semesters the students experience a program which to call “demanding” would be quite an understatement. An academic program which goes beyond the scope of the disciplines, tightly associates with practical issues and offers intensive support by the professors. It really puts energy and concentration to the test. To pick an image from sports: the new program is like an 800m run – you have got to be fast like a sprinter and enduring like a long-distance runner.

As a reward, seductive prizes are offered: instead of Olympic medals, a professional qualification that opens all doors awaits those who complete this challenging program. In the figurative sense, one thing also applies here: not to win, but to participate is what is most important! The companies will know and value what it means if an applicant has accomplished “Augsburg”!

We are proud: The Elite Network of Bavaria dares a step that promotes the academic education of exceptionally capable and ambitious students. Thus, Augsburg blazes a new trail – also in collaboration with other universities.

I would like to combine my greetings with my gratitude for the people who created this new concept. I am very positive about its success.

 

Dr. Edmund Stoiber
