Inspiring STEM in Middle-school Girls
inSTEM (inspiring STEM in Middle-School Girls) is an all encompassing program that combines STEM, mentorship, leadership, and empowerment by nurturing and creating the next generation of women in STEM.
At inSTEM, girls are exposed to civil engineering through Solar Panel Car and Robotics workshops, introduced to the fundamentals of coding and computer science, engaged in mathematical concepts through Flagway, cultivate creativity through Arts, and learning about mentorship, leadership and empowerment along the way.
inSTEM’s learning environment is built around a love of learning, collaborating with peers and mentors, and bringing the participants’ creativity to life.
inSTEM Program includes:
In addition, inSTEM lays the foundation of a near-peer mentoring relationship, fostered around academic support, women empowerment and leadership during the critical transition from middle school to high school and college.
*inSTEM camp is specifically for rising female 6th-8th graders.
