Abstract
It is assumed that engineering degree courses are still not chosen as often as necessary to comply with the requirements of the industry which needs much more engineers. Especially women students choose engineering degree courses quite rarely. Various studies have investigated on supporting and hindering factors concerning engineering degree courses, and it turned out that interdisciplinarity is a supporting factor /European Projects: INDECS 2001 and WomEng 2005/. The degree courses of mechanical engineering and of security (safety) engineering at the University of Wuppertal decided to offer an interdisciplinary module including management and creative methodologies to increase the number of engineering students and especially the number of women engineering students. A rather big part of this offer is carrying out serious games.
