Many thanks to everyone who took part in the "Snapshots of Explorations" photo competition for Bachelor's and Master's students at our faculty - we are delighted to have received more than 150 photos!

After the submission deadline (extended to 14 December due to the lockdown), it is now the jury's turn. The winners will be announced by the end of January 2022. In the meantime: Thank you for your great "Snapshots of Exlorations"!
