In nearly all daily life situations information technology (IT) is present, the perspectives for women and men in IT-jobs are very good, nevertheless girls and young women don't bother to become a computer scientist. The technical image of computer science is determined by the image of the hacker and women feel excluded. In the project 'Informatica Feminale -Summer University for Women in Informatics' at the Department of Informatics, University of Bremen (Germany), women try to change this image and to develop own viewpoints of computer science.
