On 26 April 2024, the Faculty of Mathematics and Economics held a ceremony to honour special achievements and commitment. Graduates received sponsorship awards for the best degrees, students were honoured for their commitment and doctoral candidates received doctoral certificates. The sponsorship awards were presented by Thorsten Kühn (for the prize sponsor Sparkasse Ulm), Rainer Unsöld (WiMa Foundation), Dr Roland Wiese (Ulm Forum for Economics), Dr Frank Fleischer (Boehringer Ingelheim) and Prof Karsten Urban for the Wilhelm Weinmeister Academic Award. Andreas Lebedev (Computational Science and Engineering Student Council) was responsible for honouring student commitment. Before the doctoral certificates were presented, the supervisors of the dissertations presented the content and significance of the research work.

By introducing the honoured students and talking to them, the diversity of the Faculty's range of courses and research areas became clear, as well as the unifying bond: personal and individual supervision, the quantitative foundation and very good practical contacts make it easy to successfully work on current topics at the Faculty of Mathematics and Economics.
