Project employee (EG 13 TV-H) - in the Department of Mechanical Engineering

In the project "Pilot project for the implementation of a Bachelor of Science plus MINT with orientation phase" funded by the state of Hesse from the study structure program, a position is to be filled as soon as possible in the Department of Mechanical Engineering. The orientation course is designed as a two-semester orientation phase, which precedes the subsequent six or seven-semester subject-related course. This is an optional focus within the framework of the model degree course. The aims of the innovative model are to expand the target group of potential STEM students, to facilitate the introductory phase of studies by compensating for different learning requirements, to prevent students from dropping out and changing subjects, to acquire key skills relevant to successful study at an early stage and to increase the proportion of women in STEM subjects.
