Women

For most women, employment is part of their life plan, but their careers still differ from those of men. In most cases, women carry out the majority of family work, interrupt their careers to raise children and often switch to part-time jobs. In addition, they earn less than men for the same work and are also rarely found in management positions. Special continued education courses, support and mentoring programs, etc. are intended to help women in their professional development - KIT intranet: continued education, support measures, mentoring

The target of equal opportunities at KIT is also to establish a balanced gender ratio in science and technology, for example by increasing the proportion of female students in mathematics, informatics, natural sciences, and engineering (MINT) subjects. In this context, the "Femtec Alumnae e. V." offers the podcast "Frauen machen MINT" (on Spotify and Apple), in which committed women who are enthusiastic about technology and science give personal insights into their careers, among other things. It's worth a listen!
