„The University of Stuttgart is a leading, technically-oriented German university with a global presence and has set itself the declared goal of enabling equal opportunities and gender equality for all. In light of this, we are aware of our special responsibility for young female scientists in the STEM fields. Our initiative as a partner university in the Femtec Network offers our ambitious female students the valuable opportunity to be actively supported on their path to responsible professional positions and to receive innovative support in terms of personal and professional growth, leadership skills, career development and networking. As a university in one of the strongest economic regions in Europe, we particularly welcome the close cooperation with internationally operating companies.”
