Women remain underrepresented in STEM career fields—this initiative will be a catalyst to change that. The Collective will be comprised of women working in STEM as well as undergraduate and graduate students studying these fields. Through mentorship, networking and hands-on programming developed and implemented by women in this Collective, women and girls of all ages will collaborate to build a community, giving rise to the next generation of female STEM professionals.
Corporate support of the EMPOW[HER] Collective not only supports hands-on STEM programming for girls, but also shows your commitment to helping young women aspire to achieve career goals they may have never thought possible.
