The Niedersachsen-Technikum is a new concept for the acquisition of the female young specialists in science and business in the so-called MINT subjects. MINT stands for: Mathematics, Computer Science, Natural Sciences and Technology. It is aimed at young women who have just finished high school.
At the beginning of this year''s Niedersachsen-Technikum, the Laboratory for Nano- and Quantum Engineering (LNQE) presented nanotechnology at the Leibniz Universität Hannover. In a short lecture and subsequent laboratory tour, guests were given insights into current nanotechnology research at the Leibniz Universität Hannover: production of the smallest samples in the clean room, synthesis and characterization of nanoparticles, gas sensors, quantum effects in cryogenic temperatures and electron microscopy. In the final discussion with the support by the student representatives, the guests were informed about the Bachelor''s and Master''s degree course Nanotechnology.
