Honors Student

Recipients of this badge were selected for their outstanding engagement at the Technical University of Augsburg for the international, English-language Honors Program. In the summer semester of 2026, they engaged in interdisciplinary exchange with 14 lecturers on the topic of "Failing Forward: The Power of Mistakes." In the modern, interactive learning environment of the Scale-up Room, students demonstrated their creativity each week — both in the seminar itself and through blog posts they wrote independently, summarizing the sessions, documenting them with photos and videos, and reflecting on the discussions. This badge recognizes their active participation, their outstanding engagement, and their ability to work creatively, interdisciplinarily, and internationally in English.
