Despite advances in STEM programs and targeted initiatives, not enough women today are choosing—or sticking with—a technical career. Women at all levels make up a distinct minority of the technical professionals working with sensors and electronics. In short, we have much more to do to truly achieve diversity in the workplace and to retain and promote women in STEM-related positions.
  • How can we inspire and expand access for young women to learn and actively explore STEM-related education and career paths?

  • Many companies advocate strongly for diversity in the workplace, what are some examples of corporate initiatives that are working?
