KCB celebrates end of academic year 2022-2023
KCB's end-of-the-year celebration
After an academic year in which students, professors and staff have all given their best, it is a delight to celebrate the end of 2022-2023 together in a joyful way.
On top of that, many of our students and professors are internationally active, making the summer holidays a temporary goodbye and the end-of-the-year celebration a time to all be together once more.
A convivial moment for and by the KCB community
Hosting this day provides a convivial moment where all those who have a connection with KCB come together.
The alumni (2021-2022 graduates) were honoured by the heads of programmes during their proclamation in the concert hall. After the ceremony, they got a chance to catch up with their former professors and fellow students at the end-of-the-year celebration.
Colleagues who have retired and dedicated themselves to KCB for many years were also among us and proudly affirmed the continuous growth of KCB.
For the very first time, alumni who have been graduates for some time were also invited.
This provided networking opportunities and the exchange of ideas and current projects in addition to fellowship and appreciation.
