Girls Discover Technology and Craftsmanship – with MUT-IG
Be brave and explore new paths
The MUT-IG project by the Frank Hirschvogel Foundation invites female pupils to gain hands-on experience in technical and craft professions – and to discover new interests and career opportunities along the way.
What can participants expect?
- 19 project days spread across the school year – during term time and holidays
- Five two-day work placements with regional companies and institutions
- Workshops, trade fair visits and exhibitions offering insights into the world of STEM careers
- Individual and needs-based guidance up to career choice – practical and personal
Hands-on experience at the heart of the programme

The Frank Hirschvogel Foundation provides:
- Organisation and coordination of the entire project
- Accompanying staff and transport service
- Tailored support even after the project ends – up to career decision
