Girl Day Is Coming Soon!
Girl Day (February 25, 2021) is a worldwide campaign to engage girls in engineering. Thousands of people--engineers, educators, and others--act as Role Models, facilitate engineering activities, and educate girls about how engineers change our world.
A report from DiscoverE states that, Despite the Odds, found that this simple formula helps girls develop an interest in engineering, build their confidence in their problem-solving skills, and create a STEM identity.
You can make a difference in a girls' life. The Y-12 National Security Complex will take the Introduce a Girl to Engineering event virtual this year to introduce East Tennessee students about careers in engineering.
Through a series of E-Talks, girls in East Tennessee can watch pre-recorded videos with Y-12 employees explaining their day-to-day and answering questions.
Teachers interested must register for the pre-taped videos, then, once registered, E-Talks will automatically be delivered to the email address used when registering and securing the ticket.
Introduce a Girl to Engineering is an annual event hosted by Consolidated Nuclear Security at Y-12 National Security Complex. There are many events for introducing a girl to STEM happening all across the country from schools to organizations like the girl scouts. Look around for events near you before Feb, 25th comes.
