The third annual “SET (Science, Engineering, Technology) in the City – A Day of Career Exploration for High School Girls” will take place on Saturday, April 30th, 2011. We are anticipating 175-200 students this year. I hope you’ll consider volunteering at the event – we need volunteers to staff informational, demonstration, and career tables at the informational bazaar from 10:30-11:30 AM at the Photonics Center at Boston University. Please save the date! If you agree to volunteer, we’ll follow up with you to register for a table once the website is ready.
Students will start the day at Boston University, travel to area venues including Harvard, Emmanuel, Simmons, Wentworth, and Biogen Idec Community Lab for lunch and laboratory activities, and end the day with an Omni show at the Museum of Science. Participating students will take part in hands-on activities, hear from and interact with students and professionals in SET fields, learn about cutting edge research that will change the world, and find out how to prepare for careers in Science, Engineering, and Technology. This event is sponsored by the Boston Area Girls STEM Collaborative, which includes representatives from the following organizations and institutions:
Boston University, Emmanuel College, Girls Scouts of Eastern MA, Harvard University, Boston Museum of Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Northeastern University, Science Club for Girls, Simmons College, TechBoston, UMass Boston, Wentworth Institute of Technology and WGBH.
