Alumni
Georg Helm Prizewinners Alumni Network
The winners of the Georg Helm Prize form a network of excellent early-careers researchers and scientists from all disciplines represented at TU Dresden. Interdisciplinary networking and the opportunity for stakeholders from different institutes to share experiences stands at the foreground of the Georg Helm Prizewinners Alumni Network.
The alumni meet once a year for an interdisciplinary discussion between the award winners, TU Dresden and representatives of the Stifter-Verein. As high achievers and representatives of various disciplines and professions, the award winners’ feedback forms the core of this discussion platform
The resulting feedback from other research institutes, companies and associations points to solutions to current issues in the design of research and teaching. Furthermore, it forms the basis for collaboration between science, research and industry. The Georg Helm Prizewinners become members of the alumni network upon presentation of their award-winning theses during the meeting.
