Launch a Similar Program in Your Office - "Mind the Gap" Program You can easily launch your own program in order to scale this initiative or a similar one. All you need is a few enthusiastic individuals who are willing to dedicate a few hours a month. Planning: Determine date(s) and time for the school visits. Recruit volunteers to host the students (select a program manager if planning multiple visits per year). Reserve conference room for each visit. Presentation: Create a presentation that discusses current technology and your company's contribution/products/services. We like to use ones that show computer science applications in our day to day lives, or one that explains how search engines work. Panel: The goal of the panel is to introduce the girls to role models. 2-3 female engineers introduce themselves and answer questions from the audience. Some sample panel questions are below: Introduce yourself (e.g., name, role, background) What project did you work on that had a strong impact?

Book NRICH Bespoke PDBook Forthcoming EventsBook our Hands-on Roadshow Your Solutions Mind the Gap: Encouraging women to study engineering Women make up more than half the global population, but hold fewer than a third of the world’s engineering jobs. In the U.S., female students comprise fewer than 15 percent of all Advanced Placement computer science test takers. Even in high-tech Israel, few girls choose computer science. Not only is this a loss to companies like Google and everyone who benefits from a continually developing web; it's also a lost opportunity for girls. Beginning in 2008, a group of female engineers at Google in Israel decided to tackle this problem. Since we started this program over three years ago, we’ve hosted more than 1,100 teenage girls at our office, and an additional 1,400 girls at three annual conferences held in leading universities. The results are encouraging. We encourage people in other countries, at other companies and in other scientific disciplines to see how they could replicate this program.
