GIRL DAY
Girl Day is a worldwide campaign to introduce girls to the fascinating world of engineering. Thousands of people- engineers, teachers and others- act as Role Models and educate girls about how engineers change our world. This simple act has turned many girls on to engineering & technology careers.
Started in 2001 as a joint effort between NSPE, IBM, and National Engineers Week Foundation, “Girl Day” 2017 marks the 16th year of a special focus whereby women engineers, and their male colleagues, have the opportunity to introduce more than one million girls and young women to engineering. More than just one day, introduce a Girl to Engineering is a national movement that shows girls how creative and collaborative engineering is and how engineers are changing our world.
