Change the Future of Aerospace Engineering!

Studies show girls don’t pursue a career in Aerospace Engineering because they’re told they can’t. Without women in this field, girls and young women do not see role models when they show an interest and passion. Or they simply do not know that the field is an option for them, The good news is we can change this entire problem by showing girls and young women they are not alone in their interests!

Calling for Submissions!

We need every woman’s voice and experience to be heard! We aim to show the power of experience in a girl’s life in pursuing a career in STEM.
