For one day girls turn into scientists. The Girls'Day is a german-wide initiative for girls to visit especially technical oriented companies, organisations and research institutions for profession finding. Goal is to arouse interest and to bring more women into these occupational fields. The Campus offers several places for girls between 15 and 19 years. The Girls'Day will take place every forth Thursday in April. (German only)
