the push to encourage more girls to
enter the fields of science technology
engineering a mass together known as
staff is relatively new but the gender
gap in these fields is both old and
ongoing according to the National
Science Foundation women make up only 29
percent of the u.s. science engineering
workforce in January the BBC reported
there only 10 cents of the UK
engineering workforce is FEMA despite
the action efforts of schools
universities and strong implementers and
ball models the standout the cities and
it slowed to close what could be going
on the own CDs 2015 PD pests chose boys
and girls performing almost equally in
science but always report enjoying
science more and were more likely to see
themselves working in science and
engineering nonetheless the academic
results show that we girls are strong
and capable instead so how can we
encourage more girls to enter these
fields feel truly capable of excelling
here to be an obvious answer come to my
own experience I’m an aspiring anything
but why well I always loved to build and
create things from many models to
complex takes to science projects and
I’d really like maths but most of all I
want to be part of the exacting research
design and innovation that makes our
work better for everyone so how can we
apply my experience to other girls the
answer lies in three key factors that
shape me practice perception
passion that practice primarily one I
learned to speak mathematics growing up
my parents encouraged my sister me to be
comfortable with the language in maths
and played pins involving maps from
Turkish tables and number bond
competitions at the dinner table to
Tetris couples and games my confidence
grew and followed me into the classroom
where I comfortable trying new
approaches and problem-solving I’m
certain that if we can show young girls
that math is fun and they’re good at it
then they will be one step closer to a
successful future instead this leads me
to the next central factor perception
throughout the years I’ve had a pretty
clear idea of what doctors teachers and
authors do I could easily picture a chef
at work in a hot kitchen a reporter on
TV but I was clueless about the daily
work of a physicist on my ankle and
today it’s hard to get excited about
jobs we know nothing about it it was
only after I jotted a mechanical
engineer and a structural engineer the
hyper gap to fiction myself as an
engineer and I knew I was heading down
the right track
it would be exciting to launch programs
where young children can real-life stem
workers to understand and get excited
about these jobs for this reason after
my friend and I started to buy colleges
must them not yet if we increase young
are set so that they know about the cool
work that engineers do it then more
girls will come engineer the final
ingredient that night my stem studies is
passion the world is far from perfect
but the potential for scientific
discovery in Raqqah health comfort
education productivity and development
of people’s communities and
is exciting I have no doubt that career
in stem will put me and anyone else who
joins me on the forefront of
life-changing have world-changing
innovations I want to be part of the
world Titans nanomedicines Martian
colonies affordable homes clean water
clean energy clean air and clean
everything the opportunities go on and
off it’s easy to get passionate when we
open our eyes to staff last July I’d
only this new to Chennai India to bring
a week of stem activities to the stats
home a slew of mature adults we built it
was our goal to give these girls a
taster of the joy of stand we build
bridges and talents matter solar system
and even coded despite having no
computers the girls loved it and I hope
that we sparked a passion with a little
more practice they might fall in love
with them just like I did the standing
balance may not be the world’s most
pressing problem but if we bring more
than any to stem and applied them
missing talents the biggest bonus I know
we will bricks even faster towards
solving them
