Historical
note
|
|
The Program for Women in Science and
Engineering at Iowa State University operates under the Office
of the Provost, and was founded in 1987. Based on an earlier
Iowa State Committee, the Program focuses on recruiting and
retaining girls and women in the fields of science and
engineering.
The goals of
the Program are to encourage female students to pursue careers
in science and engineering; informing parents and educators
about supportive behavior; and offering support and guidance to
young women in these fields. The Program offers a wide variety
of activities, including internships, career conferences and
role models for pre-college students, workshops for educators,
and internships and scholarships for college women.
