The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) Detroit Section is pleased to announce its twelfth annual Girls’ Engineering Exploration (GEE) Day on Saturday, March 21. This year’s event will be held at the Michigan Science Center from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. The free seminar, with lunch provided, is a part of SWE’s continuous effort to educate young women about the endless career opportunities that the engineering field has to offer.
In order to make this seminar a success SWE is asking 4th, 5th, and 6th grade teachers throughout Dearborn Public Schools to pass along this information and the SWE flyer to girls that they believe display interest and enthusiasm in the STEAM subjects. SWE is striving to reach out and inspire girls that work hard and have the potential to become future engineers. The program is limited to 125 girls, so please encourage students and parents to respond as soon as possible.
Teachers and parents are also invited to attend an informational and interactive session at the same time as the student events. They will be provided with resources and opportunities to further engage their child/student in engineering activities. If teachers and/or parents are interested in attending they can register in the same link provided on the flyer. Lunch is provided and seating is limited.
Registration instructions are included on the flyer. The last date to register for the students, teachers, and parents is Monday, March 2, but seating is limited so please sign up as soon as possible.
