Would you like to gain visibility among female students and work with women over several months? Then the Female Project Experience could be just right for you:

Companies define a project. Female students apply for these projects and we put together project teams. Each team consists of up to ten female students working together. The RWTH Career Centre supports the project work with a professional project manager who accompanies the process and the students. As a company, you are welcome to provide technical support and, for example, mentors. In addition to the project work, there will be a joint kick-off meeting and a final project presentation.

The cost of participation for your company is 2,500 Euro*.
