At the nationwide "Future Day" on 25 April 2024, pupils can get to know numerous study and career opportunities
Paderborn University will be opening its doors again for the nationwide "Future Day" on Thursday, 25 April 2024. "With these offers, we want to give pupils the opportunity to get a taste of technical and artistic professions and fields of study that they are less likely to consider due to their gender-specific socialisation," says Roxana Aida Carls, head of the university's "Women Shaping the Information Society" project. While there are exciting offers for girls in the STEM field (maths, computer science, natural sciences and technology), boys can gain insights into a career in education, among other things. Registration for the events is now open at "Girls' Day" website or "Boys' Day" website.
A total of six STEM subjects are opening their (laboratory) doors: schoolgirls can gain practical insights into the field of electrical engineering in the workshop "Soldering, wiring, programming: Insights into studying electrical engineering and professional practice". Under the motto "Girls Do Mathematics", schoolgirls can find out what a technomathematician does in practice and learn about various examples of how maths is used in everyday life. At the same time, boys can discover, among other things, the field of primary school teaching and the profession of media and information services specialist specialising in libraries.
