Five distinct learning Experiences for girls
In research published in the journal Science, it was revealed that parents and teachers consistently believe boys to be better at STEM subjects. According to Janet Hyde, the researcher who led the study, this mentality “keeps girls and women out of a lot of careers, particularly high-prestige, lucrative careers in science and technology."
The STEM gender gap is indeed immense, with women comprising only 12% of U.S. Computer Science undergraduates (Code.org). That's why our sights are set on 50/50 gender parity across our programs and in the tech space as a whole. The female perspective is vital.
Gender equity has been at our core since 1999 when mother-daughter duo Kathryn and Alexa Ingram-Cauchi founded the company.
Today, over 50% of our year-round workforce is female. They are technical spec writers, QA testers, product designers, project managers, web developers, graphic designers…the possibilities are endless. Additionally, over half of our summer camp staff is female. They’re experts in everything from Java coding and game design, to photography and video production, and they're here to empower the next generation of women in STEM.
