In the future, students will be able to study in the T-Systems lecture hall on the Sontheim campus or take part in practical lectures, study excursions and events organised by the IT service provider. The focus of the "Expert Day" is on the exchange of experts. Students gain insights into current developments within the IT industry, into exciting projects and case studies. They make contacts for their career and build valuable networks.
"This significant commitment fosters the link between academic success and economic growth. We are looking forward to the intensified cooperation with T-Systems and appreciate the associated recognition as a high-quality educational institution," says Rector of Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences, Professor Oliver Lenzen.
