Women are severely underrepresented in the engineering profession.
Research shows that girls and young women lose interest in subjects and the fields of study leading to engineering careers long before they enter college. If you plan to participate in Introduce and Girl to Engineering Day, sign on to our National Pledge Roster and let others know about your efforts. As part of our focus on girls, we will publicize the need for more women in engineering and will reach K-12 girls with positive messages about math and science education and engineering careers.
