Dear Students

We are already in the middle of the fall semester and before a first bit of exhaustion could set in, the homecoming party has certainly given you some boost. You can use this momentum well - because the exams and their preparation are becoming an important topic. In this mail you will find an overview of the upcoming dates as well as information about events and courses.

I wish you continued thirst for knowledge, exciting insights as well as a good preparation time and much success with the exams.

Warm regards
Prof. Dr. Simon Lüchinger
Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Management
