Program All female-identifying middle and early high school students are invited to a day of fun STEM activities at UCSB! The UCSB AWM (Association for Women in Math) Student Chapter is hosting POWERS Day, which stands for Problem sOlving for Women to Encourage Research in STEM. The activities will include fun with engineering, physics, math, and statistics. We'll also have lunch at the lagoon and an opportunity to hear from undergraduate women majoring in STEM during the undergraduate panel. We aim to make role models available to girls and provide information about STEM workplaces to empower the next generation of women in STEM careers. Registration To register for POWERS day, please fill out the form. The event is free and includes lunch, but a $5 donation is appreciated to cover food costs. We can accept up to 25 students.
