We recognize the importance of STEM becoming more inclusive. Statistics show that a majority of STEM careers are dominated by male employees. We're focused on being the change! One of the main tenets of our PA Smart Grant work is focused on increasing the equity of participants in STEM fields.
Computer Science Organization | The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects computer science research jobs will grow 19% by 2026. Yet, women only earn 18% of computer science bachelor's degrees in the United States. Despite the high job demand, computer science remains a male-dominated field in the United States. In response, many top colleges are making efforts to recruit female computer science students, making it an ideal time for women to pursue computer science degrees. |
| STEM Ed for Girls | STEMEd for Girls is a series of lively, informative and engaging virtual workshops that will pave the way for your success as you move through high school, into college and eventually on to your career. |
