Bagels and snacks provided! Join Aynsley Szczesniak, a first year at UNC, and a panel of trailblazing Tar Heel women to learn all about how UNC empowers young women to achieve in STEM. We’ll kick off with an exciting panel discussion moderated by Szczesniak, the Founder and Executive Director of Speak Out Sisterhood, a global network elevating youth to eradicate barriers to equality for women in STEM. Ultimately, this workshop will open your eyes to just how many resources are available to you as you navigate your own STEM journey. A highlight will be an interactive escape room, where you’ll form small teams to collaboratively solve puzzles, trivia and challenges related to women in STEM. Bring your questions and join us for an engaging dialogue about the importance of championing women in STEM both from within and outside the university.
