Eggert, Prof. Olia Lialina and our AStA addressed greetings to the graduates.

At 7 p.m., all interested visitors were invited to the exhibition of the graduates and the students’ work. On Saturday, February 10, 2024, a guided tour took place at 2:30 pm. The final exhibition and work show on February 9 and 10, 2024 was great! It was great to see so many people celebrating with our graduates and students!
