Girls in STEMM
Girls in STEMM is a 6‑day intensive program designed for girls aged 14–17, aiming to close the gender gap in Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, and Medicine. Created by Synpact, this academically rigorous and future‑focused enrichment program combines academic STEMM learning with real‑world application through company visits, skills training, and project‑based learning. Students build confidence, strengthen communication skills, and gain clear insight into STEMM career pathways by connecting directly with professionals in the field. The program runs for 5 intensive instructional days and concludes with a formal graduation and group presentation on the 6th day, serving as a valuable complement to school curricula during summer and holiday breaks.
The program features a strong focus on building STEMM identity and challenging gender stereotypes through workshops, role models, and strength‑building activities. It aligns all hands‑on projects, site visits, and presentations with real STEMM careers to help students understand real‑world relevance. It also includes a structured public speaking progression, regular reflection and goal‑setting exercises, ongoing follow‑up resources, and interactive peer‑based learning. By engaging with successful female professionals, students gain relatable inspiration and clear guidance to continue pursuing STEMM beyond the program.
