the precondition for technical applications
My favourite school subject with strictly
logical conclusions as a way to solve problems
Why physics?

Team: Engineers with one physicist :
Team: Engineers with one physicist Things which a physicist can bring into an engineers team
Can give new ideas “out of the box”
More analytical and statistical based data analysis
Can look at problems or circumstances from a more mathematical and deeper physical point of view
Establish basic knowledge Things which a physicist learns from the engineers
Material science
Production specific knowledge
Process optimization and stability

Team: men with one woman Feedback from my colleagues:
“Sometimes easier to communicate with colleagues from other departments”
“The association is more comfortable and harmonious, that results in a more effective work and a higher motivation”
“There is nothing special it’s self-evident to have women in the team”
