2023 - STEM4Girls Workshop (UMass Dartmouth, October 28)

On Saturday, Oct. 28, UMass Dartmouth hosted the 11th STEM4Girls Day for roughly 200 girls in 3rd to 8th grade, half of whom were from New Bedford, MA. The sold-out event, which began in 2010, strives to inspire girls from disadvantaged communities to explore careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) by presenting these subjects engagingly and enjoyably.
