Empower young girls to reach for the stars and break barriers in STEM fields during Expanding Girls’ Horizons in Science and Engineering Month!
Welcome to Expanding Girls’ Horizons in Science and Engineering Month, celebrated every year on March 1! This month-long celebration was created to encourage more girls to pursue careers in the fields of science and engineering, which have traditionally been male-dominated. From learning about famous female scientists and engineers to participating in hands-on activities and workshops, this month offers a variety of fun and educational opportunities for girls to explore their interests and potential in these important fields. Let's celebrate the incredible achievements of women in science and engineering, while inspiring the future generation of female leaders!
Sign up for a workshop or seminar focused on science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields. This is a great way to learn more about these subjects and get hands-on experience.
Gather successful women in STEM fields and have them share their experiences and advice with girls. This can inspire and motivate girls to pursue careers in science and engineering.
Coding is becoming increasingly important in today's world. Encourage girls to learn this valuable skill by organizing a coding competition with fun challenges and prizes.
Take a trip to a science museum to explore different exhibits and learn about various scientific concepts. Many museums offer special programs and events during this month.
Gather a group of girls who are interested in science and engineering and start a club where you can discuss, learn, and work on projects together. This can be a fun and supportive way to encourage girls in these fields.
Women are underrepresented in science and engineering fields, so it's important to give young girls opportunities to explore their interest in these subjects. By celebrating this month, we can help break down gender stereotypes and promote a more diverse and inclusive future in STEM careers.
By showcasing successful women in science and engineering, this month can serve as a source of inspiration for young girls who may have an interest in these fields. It can also help them see that they too can excel in these areas and make a difference in the world through their talents and hard work.
Science and engineering are all about exploring new ideas and pushing boundaries. By encouraging girls to participate in activities related to these fields, we can cultivate a love for learning and exploration that can potentially lead to future breakthroughs and innovations.
