The Mentoring Program WiMINToring is an established and proven support program for female students at Clausthal University of Technology. Since its introduction in 2019, the program has taken place every two years in the summer semester. The last round started in summer semester 2024 and the next is planned for summer semester 2026 - with 10 mentoring places for committed female students who want to start thinking about their professional future at an early stage. They will be paired with an experienced mentor from academia or business who will provide them with individual support over several months, inspire them and help them with their personal development.

The mentoring program WiMINToring is a successful instrument for the targeted promotion of women. The program is aimed at female students on all degree courses at our university.
