Alles begann mit einem YouTube-Video

BREMEN. Bruno Molina Stagi was awarded the DAAD Prize for his outstanding academic achievements as well as for his social engagement. As a student of nautical sciences at the Bremen University of Applied Sciences (HSB), he received the prize of 1,000 euros from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) last November. It all started many years ago in his home country of Uruguay, when he watched a YouTube video on shipping; this initiated a childhood dream of becoming a sea captain one day. He looked for an international graduate course along these lines and found it at the HSB. Stagi has been studying “Ship Management” there since the winter semester of 2020.
