Another Dr. Hettlich - February 2011 |
Dear Friends,
On February 12th 2011, Bianca obtained the German Doctor title in Munich, Germany.
In Germany you are not automatically Dr. by graduating from university - you have to do research, write a thesis, and defend it in an oral examination - only then you are entitled to call yourself 'doctor'.
Bianca dedicated her thesis to Frank: dedicated with all my heart to my father Dr.Frank Hettlich, with the last photo that Frank took of the sunrise over the atlantic.
After the graduation ceremony we had a big party at the home of Karl Heinz and Sabine. It was a wonderful setting to celebrate and made the day even more special. The next day, we all flew again to various parts of the world, where ever home is.
Next will be Malaika. Her thesis is currently with her mentor for final corrections and we should have another Dr. party this year!
