Success in Science and Technology: Engagement with Role Models

SISTERS stands for Success in Science and Technology: Engagement with Role Models. The goal of this organization is to facilitate group meetings using the role-model approach to encourage middle school girls to attend college and pursue careers in STEM. Our meetings are solely led by female STEM undergraduate students to ensure that the girls have strong female role models in STEM. Our organization will host female leaders in various STEM disciplines to present about their careers, education, and hardships that they overcame to get to where they are now. This year, we are planning to continue educating middle school students about careers in STEM through field trips, presentations, social issue seminars, and activities led by leaders in STEM. We will be hosting a hybrid format, and are excited to mentor and inspire middle school students to pursue STEM education/careers.
