TechGYRLS, a 10-week after-school program to introduce young women to science, technology, engineering and mathematics disciplines, is now accepting registrations.
The program, for third through seventh grade girls, is held on NDSU’s campus and is sponsored by the student chapter of the Society of Women Engineers and the College of Engineering.
Participants will engage in a variety of hands-on activities led by NDSU women engineering students. The program is designed to provide real-life applications of engineering principles, get girls interested in engineering and show them how to have fun with learning.
Classes will meet from 4:15 p.m. to 6:15 p.m. starting the week of Sept. 15. Grades three and four will meet on Mondays. Grades five, six and seven will meet on Tuesdays.
The cost for the program is $50. Registration is open and is on a first-come, first-served basis. To register, visit www.ndsu.edu/coe/k_12_outreach/ and click on TechGYRLS.
