ForLab on Instagram: @elektrotechnikentdecken aims to inspire young people for electrical engineering

What actually is electrical engineering? How are electrical engineers helping to shape the future? And is the course right for me? Young people interested in STEM can now find answers to these and other questions on the German-speaking Instagram channel Elektrotechnik Entdecken. It provides insights into studying, research and everyday working life in electrical engineering. Students and graduates have their say and share their experiences and the odd anecdote. The Instagram page is a sub-project of the ForLab-NataliE project and is designed to get young people interested in electrical engineering.

Would you like to take part and present an exciting project or chat about your experiences? Then get in touch with Pia Marie Braun, Science Manager in the ForLab-NataliE project at Ruhr-Universität Bochum (Pia.M.Braun@rub.de).
