History
The offer looks back on a long tradition of programs for the promotion of girls and young women, especially in the MINT area at TUM. For more than 20 years, these programs have been offered as a building block for meeting TUM's gender equality standards. The "MINT-Erlebnis an der Uni" was created in 2019 from the merger of "Mädchen machen Technik - das Ferienprogramm der TUM" and "Schülerinnen forschen - die Herbstuniversität der TUM" of the agency for girls in science and technology.
