As part of the “Girls: Deploy Your Talents” project, IMS Luxembourg is organising an evening for students aged 14 – 19. The goal: to discover STEM studies and careers (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) in a concrete, fun, and inspiring way.
This evening is an opportunity to meet professionals working in STEM, hear about their career paths, ask all your questions, and understand how we can break down some stereotypes that still influence career choices. They will be there as role models, showing the diversity of possible paths and offering ideas for your future.
Workshops led by committed individuals and experts in Luxembourg will allow you to explore different sectors, better understand the challenges involved, and help you move forward in making your career choices.
The idea is to create a cool, open space where you can talk, discover, try things out, challenge preconceived ideas, and imagine your future without limits.
When? Thursday, 23 April 2026 from 18:00 to 20:00
Where? Lënster Lycée international School - 2 rue Victor Ferrant, 6122 Junglinster
For who? This event is open to students (aged 14–19), including those who are not at Lënster Lycée.
Event in English and French. Simultaneous translation into English and French.

IMS opts for exclusively vegetarian meals in order to limit the environmental impact of its events while adopting an ethical approach to animal welfare. This choice encourages a more sustainable diet that respects the living world. This menu also encourages the inclusion of people on specific diets for medical, ethical or religious reasons.
