Graduation Ceremony of the XI & XII MBA editions – relation
The 21th May 2022 was a momentous day for students of the XI and XII MBA Programme and our MBA community. On that day students received their diplomas and became International MBA Gdańsk Tech Alumni!
Meeting in person, finally, without restrictions
The past two years of studies have certainly not been effortless. There was a lot of learning and challenges in online meetings. Both editions have experienced remote learning and are richer with studying experiences under the prevailing restrictions. After many days of staying at home and having classes on a remote form students of XI ans XII MBA cohorts, Faculty and University Authorities and IMBA Gdańsk Tech Programme Staff met personally at the Heveliust’s Courtyard of the Gdańsk University of Technology. This place is a special one because inside it is a Foucalt’s pendulum, which indicates the rotation of the earth. This time, nothing limited us. The other participants, among them: Lecturers, Programme Advisory Board members and families could participate through online broadcasting on the official Gdańsk Tech YouTube channel.
We are Alumni!
The Graduation was conducted by Paweł Ziemiański, PhD, MBA Quality Lead and lecturer. Among distinguishing guests that delivered their speech was the Dean of the Faculty of Management and Economics, Ph.D., D. Sc., Associate Professor Małgorzata Gawrycka; MBA Director, Ph.D. Beata Krawczyk-Bryłka.
