"What do I want to be when I grow up? – Future Professionals Day at electronica 2010, which is part of the ZVEI "Superstudium.de" initiative, gave students the answer.
 
Engineers are urgently needed, especially now in times of economic upswing. As in the past, electronica 2010 and the ZVEI were doing their part and were working together to promote future professionals in the electronics industry.
 
That is why the World's Leading Trade Fair for Electronics invited everyone to attend Future Professionals Day at the electronica Forum on the last day of the fair. Under the auspices of the ZVEI "Superstudium.de" initiative for future professionals, once again some 200 high-school seniors from select schools were be able to gather information on career prospects and job descriptions in the electronics industry.
 
First, students were looking to exciting presentations from young engineers at the Forum. They gave presentations with interesting facts in a relaxed atmosphere and reported on their own careers and professional responsibilities to give young people a look at educational alternatives and career opportunities in the electronics industry. They will also be available to answer questions.
 
Then hostesses took the students – who were divided up into small groups and equipped with "snack bags" – to the exhibition stands of three companies, where young engineers, trainees and apprentices made presentations and were available to answer questions. They gave the students a first-hand look at how exciting it can be to work in the electronics industry and that careers in engineering are fun and leave room for creativity.
 
The Knowledge Course was celebrating its premiere at Future Professionals Day in 2010. At "Knowledge Stations" next to the electronica Forum, students presented their school projects, and companies conducted interesting experiments that students could try out to learn more about technology and have fun at the same time.
 
Future Professionals Day concluded with an additional highlight, i.e. a sweepstakes: Our partner Digi-Key Corp. was providing two Vespa scooters for the lucky winners.
