100 schoolgirls, not only from schools in the region, but from all over Germany, took part in Girls'Day 2021 at the Deggendorf Institute of Technology!
This year, technicians and teachers from the university offered varied virtual workshops that gave the girls the opportunity to experience "STEM at first hand" despite the distance. DIT campus was also explored as part of a virtual campus tour. Two female students from the Deggendorf Institute of Technology were on hand with materials for the girls.

• The Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering showed how to build bridges out of paper like a real engineer.
• Those interested in natural sciences gained insights into the field of optics in a spectromenter workshop.
• The university's technology campuses also showed interesting hands-on programmes. TC Cham introduced schoolgirld to the world of 3D printing. And at TC Teisnach, one could experience a day as a physicist and precision optician.

Girls' groups between 7th and 10th grade can spend a whole or half day at DIT within the framework of a Girls'Day Academy at their school. We offer exciting lectures, laboratory tours and experiments.

Here you can find more information about the Girls'Day Academy.

Experience study courses and student life at DIT

In addition to the general career guidance provided by the employment agency, we present the study programmes offered by the Deggendorf Institute of Applied Sciences, e.g.

1. at your own school

• Study and career information fairs
• Project seminars
• information events on the choice of subjects or training courses

1. at the Deggendorf Institute of Technology

• Trial studies
• Excursions (by arrangement)
• Themed workshops (by arrangement and available room capacities)

Trial studies offers the opportunity to participate in lectures, visit laboratories, speak with students and professord and discover the campus.

Duration: All day during holidays, otherwise 3-4 hours.

Excursion programmes include a short presentation of DIT, the presentation of one or two selected sutdy programmes, discussions with student mentors, and a campus toud with laboratory visit.

Duration: approx. 1-2 hours, maximum number of participants: 100.

Themed workshops offer an in-depth examination of selected topics in small groups. The topics available for selection can be found under the heading 11/2: In-depth study and career orientation.

Duration: depending on the number of selected workshops: 2-6 hours, possible lunch at the Mensa. Maximum number of participants: 100.

We (the centre for studies and/or professors and /or student mentors) will come to you upon invitation or organise an excursion programme or themed workshop by personal arrangement at least 6 weeks before the desired date of your visit. For taster days it is best to register 8 weeks in advance.

From mid-February to mid-March, students have the opportunity to come to DIT and take an in-depth look at the following topics related to studies and careers in selected workshops (Please make your choice):

1. Study programmes offered by the Faculty of Applied Economic Sciences (School of Management), application and admission procedures, degrees and professional fields:
2. Applied Economics, Applied Business Psychology, Business Administration, International Management, Tourism Management, Business Informatics
3. Study programmes offered by the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Environmental Technology, application and admission procedures, degrees and professional fields:

The workshops are limited to 10 participants and last about 20 minutes. Afterwards there is a change, so that each group goes through all the thematic workshops. In this small group, individual questions can be answered very well. In total this programme takes about 2-6 hours, depending on how many workshops are selected, e.g.: 6 workshops in three hours, 8 in four hours (Lunch at the Mensa is possible).

A taster day during the Easter holiday and the counseling and events offered by the Centre for Studies provide further in-depth information.

The Deggendorf Institute of Technology supports project work together with cooperating companies. Students are thus given the opportunity to familiarise themselves with courses of study and occupational fields in the fields of technology, business and health. Prerequisites for this are prior consultation with the school and available time and personnel resources at DIT.

For project work that cannot be directly supervised by DIT, we try to arrange business contacts. 

In the scientific seminars, technical contents and working methods are to be conveyed on the basis of practice-oriented project work.
