What our Alumni say

  • I did not know that the Internet had such a brilliant architecture! The knowledge from this course helps me not only with computer networks but also with scaling large software systems.

    Former Participant of the course iLabX
  • What I particularly liked about this course is that it was not industry-specific, which allowed me to learn how other industries use Blockchain. Also, the course provides excellent foundational knowledge in each module. The group exercise and case study were also excellent ways to apply our new knowledge and solidify our understanding of the material. Not to mention, I made new acquaintances and friends thanks to the course!

    Flavio Garcea
    Product Manager, Digital Trust for Clearstream (part of Deutsche Börse Group)
  • The Munich Aerospace online course “Space Safety” brings together the knowledge of experts at world-class institutes like the European Space Agency, the German Aerospace Center, the Technical University Munich, and the LMU University Hospital of Munich.

    Previous Learner
  • The Global Aerospace Campus online course “Space Safety” has provided me with invaluable knowledge in the aspects of space debris, collision avoidance, and asteroid impacts.

    Previous Learner
  • Progressive digitization in all areas of society also opens up numerous new attack surfaces. Comprehensive knowledge — both theoretical and practical — is needed to protect the entire digital infrastructure. This will enable us to transition to a secure digital society.

    Prof. Dr. Daniel Loebenberger
    Secure Infrastructure, Fraunhofer AISEC
  • It is essential for companies to assess whether the “quantum advantage” provides them with a product advantage and whether the possible “quantum supremacy” may mean that their product’s technical and market conditions must be completely reassessed.

    Prof. Dr. Alexander Holleitner
    Walter Schottky Institute and Physics Department, Chair of Nanotechnology and Nanomaterials, Technical University of Munich
  • Imparting comprehensive knowledge about the agricultural and food sector. I greatly appreciate TUM’s efforts to improve the knowledge of people around the world through free education.

    Former participant in the course Economics of Agro-Food Value Chains
  • Graduates from this program will be well prepared for a wide range of professional activities to introduce innovation and to lead transformation.

    Prof. Dr. Daniel Pittich
    Assistant Professorship for Technical Education
  • The MOOC is incredibly clear and easy to understand. Everything is fully explained, and the quality is top-notch: the lessons are great, the exercises are great, and the videos are great. I had HTML lessons during my study program before, and I wish I had this kind of course, with this content. Definitely 10/10! Thanks again for the MOOC!

    Previous learner
  • Being part of the Alumni Association is the logical post-program step to foster relations and learnings of the active studies. Every network is as strong as its members are. As a coopted member of the Alumni Board, I want to contribute with my work to motivate fellow students and Alumni to engage in and initiate own alumni networking actions.

    Executive MBA | Associated Member of the Board
  • Functional integration, resource conservation, lightweight construction and highly complex component designs – these features characterize additive manufacturing processes. Consequently, additive manufacturing processes are ideal technologies for sustainable and green production. In order to be able to leverage this sustainability potential, an in-depth understanding of the manufacturing processes is essential.

    Prof. Dr.-Ing. Katrin Wudy
    Professorship Laser-based Additive Manufacturing, TUM School of Engineering and Design
  • At the start of our project phase at Kärcher, we were introduced to the most important people from the robotics team who provided us with the materials we needed. Through group interviews, we gathered valuable information for working on the objective questions. There were weekly feedback meetings to ensure mutual knowledge exchange. And although we could not be on site due to ongoing contact restrictions, we received continuous support.

    Tim Langendörfer
    Master in Management & Innovation, TUM Track
  • Our world is changing and the Internet is the heart of this change. Understanding the Internet also deepened my understanding of the ongoing Digital Transformation. This helps me at work and in my personal life. Thank you!

    Former Participant of the course iLabX
  • It is quite challenging to balance a full-time job, family life and studies. However the part-time program offered a schedule that fitted my routine, with classes once a month from Thursday to Sunday and a reasonable timeframe to deliver the modules’ assignments. The course content was a good mix between theory and practice.

    Maiara Sabioni
    Class of 2021
  • When you join this Executive MBA program, you become part of a group of interesting people from various backgrounds, who all want to improve as professionals. Working side by side with these experienced and accomplished individuals has taught me things such as: new ways of approaching problems, paths of execution entirely different from mine, insights, and advice from sources I never had access to. The side effect: a reliable personal network, that would have taken years to build up.

    Marc Erras
    Class of 2018
  • Today, we face with the challenges of climate change, growing global population as well as resource scarcity. The building industry plays a decisive role in reducing CO2 emissions. The aim of our work is therefore to highlight concepts for implementing a positive ecological footprint in the building sector.

    Prof. Dr.-Ing. Werner Lang
    Professor for energy-efficient building and planning, TUM
  • Our excursions to the various companies on the practical weekends were also very exciting, e.g. the malt house or the hop community, and the many great discussions with the other course participants at eye level were very helpful and a good added value in this course.

    Yannic Pangritz
    Master chef (participant in the Brewers Cursus 2022/2023)
  • As a transplant from California, I choose to participate actively in the Alumni Association in order to engage with the network of individuals from the university and to promote the exchange of experiences, opportunities, and connections, especially in the areas of lifelong professional learning and personal development.

    Peter So
    Executive MBA in Business & IT | Associated Member of the Board
  • Great: Good videos, interactive tasks, and integrated development environment.

    Former participant of the course
  • The course contributed an important boost to personal growth, and a path to new relationships. It exposed me to a rich combination of the science and practice of brewing. Engaging on-line presentations were followed by two, intensive, on-site sessions of three days each.

    John Chapman
    Venture Capitalist and Hobby Brewer (Participant Brewer Course 2022/2023)
