ENABLING MORE GIRLS IN STEM
Studies suggest girls perform better than boys in science and math until early secondary school. However, the field of STEM has remained predominantly male with historically low participation among women since the origins of these fields in the 18th century with the Age of Enlightenment
At TeamIndus Foundation, we believe creating opportunities designed for girls to experience and understand the possibilities that lie in the fields of science and math for them, will enable more girls to pursue these fields. Often, it’s the encouragement of other women, who’ve journeyed this less trodden path, their real-life stories, their strengths to overcome biases, which act as a guiding hand for young girls wanting to take this journey
SheCanSTEM builds on giving girls a hands-on immersion in STEM. Designed to be inclusive, it gives girls an insight into career opportunities in STEM, enables them to grow and sustain an interest in STEM, and give them role models to widen their thinking on STEM
Targeted at bright girls from under priviledged communities, the program connects textbook Physics , Math concepts and theories with their real world applications in Space Science. Over numerous sessions, the Spacecraft hardware and software tools are introduced, along with introduction to every sub-system. . The program focuses on conceptual understanding of space mechanics, Guidance , navigation, maneuvers, propulsion and control systems used in all spacecrafts, over and above connecting them with like minded women following a path of STEM
