Calling all Girls!
Go ENG Girl provides an exciting opportunity for girls in grades 7-10 across Ontario and a parent/guardian to visit their local university campus and learn from women professionals, academics and students about the wonderful world of engineering.While the girls enjoy fun hands-on activities and student exhibits, their parents are treated to an informative session about the path to a career in engineering. Join us for the 10th annual Go ENG Girl location near you.

New addition!
Go ENG Girl has a wider reach now, with UBC joining us in conducting this event in Vancouver. Welcome UBC!Why is this necessary?
Even today, females remain vastly underrepresented in the engineering profession. While the number of female undergraduates studying engineering in accredited programs has increased in recent years, the percentage is still far below that of males. ONWiE works to dispel stereotypes and encourage young girls to explore this exciting and diverse profession with real-life examples of females who are studying engineering and alumna who are excelling as professional engineers.Additional programs for both genders are offered by the individual institutions. Please use the links below to access your location of choice and view their calendar of upcoming events.
I'm a teacher, can I bring my class?
As this program is specially designed for girls and their accompanying parent or guardian, we cannot accept class or organization bookings at this time. If you are interested in bringing a similar program to your class or organization, please contact the university of interest directly.Questions?
Please contact the Coordinator, Rohini WittkeTuesday 2 September 2014
