“I am very happy that more than 5,000 young people have decided to start their studies at KIT,” says Professor Alexander Wanner, Vice President Higher Education and Academic Affairs at KIT. “The decline in the number of beginning students during the pandemic appears to have been left behind us. This is important, as the study programs we offer meet central needs of transformative and sustainable developments in science, industry, and society. Studies at KIT are characterized by a close vicinity to cutting-edge research and innovation.”
