It is generally recognised that diversity and equality are not only beneficial, but also essential for our modern, western world. How does a traditionally male-dominated subject like electrical engineering deal with this? How can we get more women interested in this forward-looking field? For the third episode of the podcast gleichstellung@etit, Claudia and Laura conducted a fascinating interview with Professor Myriam Koch – in keeping with her specialism.
Another interview with an exemplary woman in electrical engineering and information technology awaits you: Myriam Koch has been a professor at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at TU Darmstadt since 2022, where she heads the Lab of High-Voltage Equipment and Systems.
But how did she actually decide to study engineering? What experiences has she had with diversity among students, especially students without an academic background? What positive surprises has she experienced as a mother with a child at university, and what tips can she give young parents, whether students or academic staff?
You can find out all of this in this episode, in which Claudia and Laura got the professor in front of the microphone and conducted a fascinating interview with her – in keeping with her specialism.
