“Shaping the Future”: Female TUM Engineers Share Insights into Their Professional Practice – Carla Matthäus

Carla Matthäus explains what makes working with existing buildings so challenging—and why she sees it as a particularly meaningful task to renovate and improve them for better energy performance instead of tearing them down.

She also talks about her early step into self-employment and offers insights into her day-to-day work between construction sites, project planning, and running a company. The video also highlights the role her civil engineering studies at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) played in shaping her career path.

The video series “Shaping the Future – Female Engineers Report from the Field” highlights the diverse career paths of women in engineering. Initiated by the Diversity TUM ED; produced by TUM ProLehre.
