Big Sister - Female STEM-students with migration backgrounds or from abroad

Female STEM-students with migration backgrounds or from abroad A needs-based mentoring and network programme has been established for this target group. Each year, about 20 female students at TU Darmstadt are individually supported by a student mentor when organising their courses and upon arrival. This is accompanied by various workshop opportunities and regularly scheduled group meetings. Mentees and mentors reinforce their intercultural competence and reflect on their experiences related to gender and migration.
