Welcome Days: HMTM welcomes new students

On Monday, 14 October, the official opening of the academic year followed with the immatriculation ceremony in the Great Concert Hall at Arcisstraße 12. President Prof. Lydia Grün and the student council hosted a programme that was co-designed by students from the HMTM. It was a particular pleasure to present the DAAD Prize 2024 to double bass student Harry Atkinson (class of Prof. Alexandra Scott).

Afterwards, all university members were able to find out about the extensive services of the HMTM at various stands in the southern atrium and in the small concert hall at Arcisstraße 12, organised by the Career Center: the International Office, the start-up centre and innovation laboratory Wavelab, the AICA, the library, musicians for a better life, the equal opportunities team and the student representatives were also on hand, as were the student artist agency ForWART, the student advisory service, a BAföG and scholarship advisory service, the department of innovative teaching development, the communications department, the university management and, of course, the career centre itself. In the afternoon, many students were also welcomed by their institutes.

The »Welcome Days« were rounded off by the student council on Thursday, 17 October: the »FaKo Cinema«, where the recording of the last carnival concert will be shown, and the Semester Opening Party.

We wish all university a good start to the semester and thank everyone for the successful welcome!
