Premiere at the summer graduations: IMC Krems awarded degrees for the first time as a “Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften”. This designation perfectly reflects the core tasks in teaching and research to which IMC Krems has always been committed. It also corresponds to the international designation “University of Applied Sciences”, which further strengthens its global presence.

In a festive ceremony in the event hall at the IMC Campus Krems at the beginning of July, the graduation of the bachelor and master degree programmes at IMC Krems were celebrated for a week. For all those who were unable to attend the celebrations in person, there was, as always, the opportunity to join in via livestream.

650 alumni from twelve bachelor programmes and ten master programmes celebrated their successful graduation together with family, friends and the teaching staff and employees of IMC Krems. The guests were visibly delighted to see the graduates so happy and to be able to celebrate.
