genderfair @ TU Wien

TU Wien is committed to the concerns of promoting women and to creating positive and career-enhancing conditions for women. It therefore sees the achievement of the goal that women and men at TU Wien have access and career chances corresponding to their qualifications and that disadvantages for women are eliminated or compensated as the joint task of all university members. The proportion of women in the engineering disciplines at TU Wien is very low (e.g. about 10% female students in electrical engineering or mechanical engineering). Here we are concerned to bring more young women to the TU Wien and to motivate them to study. The proposed project shall support our activities in recruiting young women for engineering studies as well as in learning about obstacles of a scientific career.
