This series of workshops focuses on getting more girls to consider pursuing engineering and other STEM careers. There are many obstacles that women face including motivation, confidence, and lack of role models. With these workshops, we hope to teach students about different types of engineering careers so that they can feel confident in going into this field.

"As a high school girl who wants to major in engineering, I know how it feels to hear that STEM isn't for us. But I know that we are capable of making an impact in STEM and that we are able to contribute to advancements in science and technology." --- Haley H.
