The Presenters

Maggie Hovhanessian (JU) and Gregor Fischer (TUW)

Maggie Hovhanessian is the Integration Coordinator at Jönköping Student Unionand Jönköping University and has held this position for several years. She works actively with integration and internationalization initiatives within the student union, as well as welcoming and supporting new students at Jönköping University. She is also part of Work Package 1.2 – Student Engagement within the EULiST alliance. Gregor Fischer is also part of the same work package as Maggie. Besides that, he is a local coordinator for EULiST at TU Wien and previously worked as coordinator for incoming exchange students. Driven by more than just academics, he spent several years in TU Wien’s student union and was EULiST’s first Student Board chair. He believes he wouldn’t be who he is today were it not for all the experiences he had as an engaged student, especially as an engineer.
