StoneMINT Certificate 2025
It’s almost that time again: For the second time, we’ll be awarding our school’s own StoneMINT certificate to this year’s high school graduates! With this certificate, we recognize outstanding achievements and dedication in the fields of mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, and technology (MINT) throughout their entire school career.
What is the StoneMINT certificate?
The StoneMINT Certificate recognizes outstanding achievements and exceptional dedication in STEM fields at the secondary school levels I and II. The award may be granted with the distinction “with very good results” or “with honors.”
What are the requirements?
To receive the STEM certificate, the following criteria must be met:
Scientific Work: Participation and placements in “Schüler experimentieren” or “Jugend forscht,” or in science or math Olympiads.
Academic proficiency: Enrollment in advanced STEM courses with a grade point average of at least “good” or “very good.”
Additional STEM activities: Participation in other STEM activities (e.g., competitions, workshops, plusMINT camps, internships, special academic achievements, etc.).
The exact criteria for awarding the certificate are listed in the sample certificate. There you will find detailed information about the requirements in each area.
All services are documented
Since some students far exceed the requirements, the complete individual STEM portfolio is printed on the certificate. This ensures that all achievements and activities are comprehensively documented and recognized—even those that go beyond the minimum requirements.
Even if you’re still in middle school or elementary school, you can start collecting now!
