The “JG92”, as the graduating class of 1997/1998 of civil engineers likes to call themselves, were reunited again in their alma mater on March 18, 2023. The former fellow students received a special honor: 25 years after graduating as “Dipl.-Ing.” they were the first graduating class ever to be awarded the silver diploma of TU Dresden. The golden jubilee certificates (50 years) have already been established for several years; now the silver certificates have been added.

Following this celebration, the alumni would also like to give something back: They want to collect funds for at least one Deutschlandstipendium to support a student of civil engineering. “Maybe we'll even manage two” hopes Dr. Volkhard Gürtler.

The organizers of the event, Dr. Anna Martius and Dr. Volkhard Gürtler, both graduates of the “JG92” and employed at TU Dresden, on behalf of their former fellow students, would like to thank the Alumni Office of TU Dresden for its support in the preparation, the Association of Friends and Sponsors of TU Dresden for its financial support, Prof. Stroetmann for the lecture, and Ms. Simone Dietzsch from the SIB for her support in the guided tour.

“The high level of participation and the many positive feedbacks during and after the event showed us how much our effort was worth it. We were particularly happy to do it for that,” Dr. Anna Martius concludes.
