NCDOT & WTS - NC Triangle Chapter
Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day!
April 30, 2018
WTS NC Triangle Chapter and NCDOT are collaborating on a student outreach program for “Introduce a Girl to Engineering” Day April 30. High School girls interested in engineering will have the opportunity to participate in hands-on transportation-related engineering activities and also participate in a question-and-answer session with female engineers from various disciplines. Our engineers will also share the daily duties and skills necessary for their jobs while encouraging young women to maintain their math and science skills, which are necessary to enter programs in college.

With women making up only 12 percent of civil engineers in the United States, “Introduce a Girl to Engineering” strives to promote engineering as a desirable career option to young adults. WTS needs your help in volunteering to assist with an activity, lunch and mentoring. |
As part of the program we would like to present the mentees with a gift bag of goodies. If your firm has any give-aways they would like included, please contact
Paddy Jordan at Paddy.Jordan@MottMac.com to make arrangements.
