Exciting lectures, interactive workshops and excursions: Paderborn University invites school pupils to get to know various study and career opportunities with several programmes.

Spring university "girls only" and "all gender"

"look upb": STEM mentoring programme for schoolgirls
Get a taste of "real university air", ask questions about studying and get to know student life better - schoolgirls can do all of this in the "look upb" STEM mentoring programme. This programme allows high school students to attend lectures, workshops, excursions and mentoring meetings together with a female student for a semester, providing a practical insight into the STEM degree programmes at Paderborn University. A supporting programme with further events such as an excursion to a regional company rounds off the offer. Interested schoolgirls can register until 31 March: www.upb.de/look.
