Talking together about IT career paths, finding inspiration and gaining new professional skills - that's what the Hasso Plattner Institute's career scholarships are all about. After all, the proportion of women in the IT industry is still stagnating, as it is in IT lecture halls, and there is often a lack of exchange and role models for one's own career path.

The scholarships are aimed at motivated and committed female students who want to address their IT careers and the challenges surrounding the topic of #womenintech.
