On June 13, the University of Siegen organized an Open University Day featuring a wide range of activities, including 46 booths and interactive stations, live music, special lectures, and food stands, offering visitors the opportunity to get to know the university and its offerings.
The ATHENA Alliance team from Siegen participated with the booth “Siegen in Europe – Europe in Siegen” to inform visitors about study and exchange opportunities in Europe for prospective students, current students, and doctoral candidates. The booth featured a Europe quiz as well as a creative drawing activity in the form of customizing ATHENA tote bags, which proved popular with both adults and children.
Visitors not only discovered international opportunities through the ATHENA Alliance but also explored the joint Master’s programme Embedded Intelligence Nanosystems Engineering (EMINENT) and connected with current students and university staff. We were delighted that our EMINENT students, as well as guests from our ATHENA network at Vilnius Tech and representatives from the city of Siegen, joined us in supporting the booth.
Guests left the booth not only with valuable information about our degree programme and other study opportunities offered through ATHENA but also with ATHENA goodies and gifts.
We were delighted to meet so many prospective students and visitors and look forward to welcoming you in the future as students or participants in one of our educational events.
