Girls’Day and Boys'Day 2026

Choosing a career without stereotypes – discovering new professions and fields of study – awakening talents

In 2026, we will once again open the doors to new career prospects.

We will also be participating in the upcoming Girls' Day and Boys' Day on April 23, 2026, and look forward to giving students insights into the career and study fields at our technical university.

Let's move away from the clichés that some professions are only for boys or only for girls! In keeping with the Girls' Day and Boys' Day motto “Your day, your path!”, we want to offer you a variety of activities. You choose what you want to try out. Because you decide on your personal career path, not some role models. Find out for yourself what you enjoy and what suits you. Together with you, we want to discover talents that you may not even know you have.

Genderqueer young people are of course very welcome at Girls' Day and Boys' Day.

We look forward to seeing you!
