Not only does the STEM Hackathon allow you to form a sisterhood with other women and non-binary individuals passionate about STEM just like you! It can also allow you to explore your creativity and further the Women’s Rights Movement whether this be in the STEM industry or generally in the everyday world. The SheCanSTEM Hackathon from March 5th to March 7th will enable you just like these role models to use the power of your brain to create new ideas for the STEM industry. This could be a website, mobile app or even a robot in a chance to win a number of prizes! As the STEM role model, Marie Curie once said “In science, we must be interested in things, not in persons” so use your interest for STEM and enhance your understanding of the world of technology alongside other aspiring STEM enthusiasts in this two day hackathon! At the end of the day, Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Staton, and Mother Teresa did not create opportunities and pathways for women by chance. Don’t miss the opportunity to be the next powerful woman in STEM to pave roads for the future generations.
