The first GISW student to receive a MINT-EC Certificate is Benjamin H.. This prestigious award certifies excellent achievements in the STEM subjects, writing a successful extracurricular paper on a scientific topic and continuous engagement in STEM activities such as STEM/MINT camps, competitions in math, biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, participation in extracurricular courses.

As part of the GISW AIR-SPACE-Initiative, Benjamin developed a payload box for an air balloon completely printable with a 3D printer and wrote a scientific paper decribing the project.

Along with the German International Abitur and the US High School Diploma, this certificate will be awarded at the end of the 12th grade to eligible students. It is regarded to be of significant advantage when applying to universities.

Sebastian S. (10b) and Ann-July E. (10b) were the first GISW students to attend MINT EC camps in Germany. Sebastian went to the Technical University in Aachen for the camp "Sustainability in Resource Engineering - The Path from Extraction to Recycling". Ann-July participated in a camp about molecular biology in the training laboratory of Bayer AG in Dortmund.

A MINT EC camp is a four to five-day workshop that takes place at universities, colleges or companies in Germany. The cost for these top-class scientific camps, as well as room and board are covered by MINT-EC. 80% of student travel costs are financed by the Hugo and Herta M眉ller Foundation of GISW.
