Opening of the Academic Year: Online education

On 3 September 2020, we officially opened the Faculty of Economics and Business’ (FEB) Academic Year 2020–2021! This was our first fully digital event for the official opening of a new academic year, and we would like to thank everyone who made this year’s pioneering event a truly special one!

With inspiring welcome message from our Dean Peter Verhoef, in which he talked about the FEB’s digital transformation of education, and the implications on teaching and research, stressing the importance of staying connected as a community.

With 1200+ views and counting, we are pleased that we brought together such an amazing group and to have managed to start off FEB’s new academic year successfully.

We also handed out the Freshmen of the Year Awards 2019–2020 to four students, to knowledge their excellent academic achievements in their bachelor studies.

After the ceremony we raised our glasses and toast to a successful academic year.
