Girls in STEM
Supported by the National Academy of Engineering’s EngineerGirl Program
Our efforts to support females in STEM work to expose girls to hands-on projects and experiments at a young age. Through collaborative workshops in our STEM Club for Girls, we aim to help them strengthen their abilities in STEM and recognize that the whole world of educational and career opportunities is at their very own fingertips.
