Academic Year Ruperto Carola Annual Celebration

21 October 2019

Opening of the New Academic Year

With its traditional Annual Celebration, Heidelberg University opened the 2019/2020 academic year. Members of the university along with friends, donors, and alumni gathered in the Great Hall of the Old University to celebrate Ruperto Carola’s 633rd anniversary. As is tradition during the Annual Celebration, the university recognised those who have shown extraordinary commitment to the university and dedication to the advancement of scholarship. Among those honoured this year were two benefactors long known for championing research and knowledge transfer in the field of language development: Günter Reimann-Dubbers was welcomed into the community of Honorary Senators. Dr Hedwig-Else Dürr received the Great University Medal. The academic discussion was devoted to the topic of transfer. In addition, the Hengstberger Prizes for outstanding young researchers and research teams were awarded. The Annual Celebration was held on 19 October 2019.
