Prof. Dr. Christoph Spengel Receives Teaching Award 2026

As every year, all Business Administration students had the opportunity to nominate and vote for their Lecturer of the Year. After two rounds of voting, Prof. Dr. Christoph Spengel emerged as the winner and will receive this year’s Teaching Award.

Professor Spengel particularly impressed students with his well-designed teaching concept, which includes online quizzes as well as comprehensive model solutions for exercises and tutorials. Students also highly appreciate his examinations, which are regarded as particularly fair, and the transparent communication of assessment requirements from the very beginning of the course.

Students especially value Professor Spengel’s infectious enthusiasm for his subject and his authentic teaching style. Through anecdotes, practical insights, and background information, he consistently encourages students to look beyond the boundaries of the curriculum. In this way, he succeeds in motivating many students to attend his lectures in person, even at a time when online learning opportunities continue to expand.

We congratulate Professor Spengel on this well-deserved recognition and thank him for his valuable contribution to teaching at Mannheim Business School.
