Nebraska Women in STEM envisions Nebraska being a leading state in the representation of women in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) workforce. We recognize that in order to reach this goal, we must work together to reduce the barriers that prevent the growth of women in STEM careers. Our goal is to create opportunities for Nebraska’s professional women in STEM to connect, discuss, and collaborate in order to:
- Address industry workforce shortages and diversity challenges by raising awareness of barriers and advocating for women in STEM
- Create more career and leadership opportunities for women in STEM by providing professional development opportunities
- Connect professional women in STEM through networking and mentorship opportunities
Whether you’re a woman in STEM looking to help lead this important effort, or an individual or organization looking to help reduce barriers and create opportunities for Nebraska’s women in STEM, we welcome your partnership.
