  • Paolo Molignini
  • Oliver Rietmann

The award ceremony took place on the occasion of the end of term reception on 6 December 2016.

The Assistant Award was first launched in 2013 by the student association VMP (German) as a recognition of the assistant's performance in giving exercise classes.

Every Spring and Autumn Semester the students determine the winners from a pool of two hundred student teaching assistants.

The students assess their teaching assistants in terms of satisfaction with the lessons, correction of the exercises and how competently they handle questions.
