Study Week in Boston, USA
As part of our study week, 18 students from the Business Engineering Logistics program explored Bridgewater State University (BSU) in Boston, USA, together with Prof. Annett Großmann and Dr. Thomas Kriehn. The week was marked by exciting experiences and now forms the basis for future student exchanges between HHN and BSU. Thank you to the DAAD and the BMBF for supporting the project.
Highlights:
- Signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) together with the President of BSU as a foundation for future collaborations.
- Exploring Boston, including the historic Freedom Trail.
- Visits to the BSU campus with lectures and events on environmental geography and sustainability.
- Insights into BSU's sustainability program and "permaculture garden".
