DAAD Jahresempfang |
|
|
|
|
On January 12, 2012, about 120 DAAD alumni gathered for our annual reception at the German House in New York.
The Minister of State at the Federal Foreign Office, Cornelia Pieper, opened this year’s annual reception.
Dr. Rosemarie Morewedge, the new president of the Alumni Association of the US presented Professor John Grandin, Emeritus at the University of Rhode Island with the Association’s Award for International Exchange. The highlight of Professor’s Grandin’s contribution to the field of German Studies is the establishment of the International Engineering Program (IEP) which offers double majors in German studies and engineering to hundreds of students each year. The IEP includes a semester of study in Germany followed by an internship with a German company. To read Dr. Morewedge’s speech, please click here.
