Together with Mr. Lucas Müller, an electrical engineering student at the Bergische Universität in Wuppertal, we are pleased about the funding as part of the Deutschlandstipendium scholarship program in the 2022/2023 funding year. The scholarship, made possible by REO, supports Mr. Müller, who has successfully distinguished himself as a talented and high-achieving student in the Master’s program in Electrical Engineering, on his further path. However, the scholarship was not only awarded based on top grades, but also on social commitment, special personal achievements, and the social and family situation. This holistic understanding of the concept of performance in the Deutschlandstipendium opens up educational opportunities for young talents and has been an investment in the future for REO AG for many years. In addition to REO’s in-house training programs, which include offers such as dual studies or the supervision of final theses in addition to classic training, REO sees its commitment to the Deutschlandstipendium as a first-class opportunity to get in contact with the specialists of tomorrow. Since REO AG sees this commitment as a socially important task, it is continuing the tradition of awarding scholarships. After the Corona years, the scholarship is once again taking place against a special background this year: the difficult financial conditions under which students throughout Germany are currently suffering and will continue to suffer in the near future. It is therefore a good sign that the number of sponsors has risen significantly in the last 10 years. “The number of sponsors has doubled. The number of scholarships has tripled to 180. We are very pleased that we can support our high-performing and committed students in this way and that companies and foundations are expressing their connection with the region and their university in this way”, summarizes Prof. Dr. Andreas Frommer, Vice President for Studies and Teaching at the Bergische Universität.

REO AG congratulates Mr. Lucas Müller and wishes him all the best for his future life. Hopefully we’ll see you again!
