Today, technology is no longer the sole reserve of men. More and more women are showing great enthusiasm for MINT careers (MINT stands for Mathematics, Informatics, Natural science and Technology). At Siemens they will find exciting projects, sustainable products, and an innovative work environment. Our mentoring program "Young Ladies´ Network of Innovation" (YOLANTE) supports young women during their studies and arranges internships and student traineeships. It is often particularly important for young people to make early professional contacts and learn about the practical application of their theoretical knowledge.
At an early stage we encourage young women not to follow traditional patterns but to give greater consideration to technical careers. We participate in numerous campaigns as part of the Germany-wide "Go MINT" initiative and, on the annual Girls´ Day, we welcome several thousand guests to experience technical professions "live".
