AMS Girls in STEAM @ UBC
Girls in STEAM aims to support and facilitate access to STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Design, Maths) education for girls, women, gender-diverse people, and the LGBTQ+ community. Our main objective is to bridge the gender and diversity gap in STEAM fields by offering a supportive environment that encourages exploration, learning, and professional development. Through a series of regular programming (i.e. workshops and panels), Girls in STEAM hopes to provide underrepresented groups with opportunities to explore the wide range of STEAM topics. By participating in these events, members can gain hands-on experience, develop professional skills, and broaden their understanding of the multidisciplinary nature of the STEAM industry. Girls in STEAM hopes to prepare its members with the necessary tools and knowledge to kick-start their early careers. Our club offers resources and workshops that assist members in strengthening their communication and problem-solving abilities, ultimately empowering them to thrive in the industry. With a focus on promoting access to STEAM resources for girls, women, gender-diverse people, and the LGBTQ+ community, Girls in STEAM strives to foster an inclusive and collaborative society, where diverse perspectives and talents are celebrated and innovation can thrive.
