In the week of 8 to 10 January 2020, the International Project Seminar, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Kai-Ingo Voigt and Daliborka Witschel from the FAU, and Prof. Jonathan Beebe from Boston College (USA), successfully started in Nuremberg. At the beginning of the project, the representatives from the Diehl Group, Dr. Martin Sommer (Chief Human Resources Officer), Dr. Andreas Volek (Head of Innovation Management) and Laura Hautmann (Head of Corporate Talent Acquisition & Attraction), warmly welcomed us at the Diehl Headquarter and gave us interesting business related insights.  During the next three month, the student group consisting of three favored graduate students from the FAU and three students from the Boston College will work on the this year´s project topic “Digital Competencies – what are they?”. The final presentation of the project results will traditionally take place at the partner university in Boston around mid-April.

We wish all students a successful and fruitful project time and thank all representatives from the Diehl Group and Boston College for the magnificent cooperation!
