Girls on Teams going to Engineering

[George A.]

I hope some people can help me out with this.

For my women studies class, we were assigned an open ended mid term assignment, so I figured I'd talk about women going into engineering even though it's historically been a male dominated career.

So I'd like to talk with the girls on FIRST teams and ask them some questions for statistics in my presentation.


1) What made get involved in FIRST
2) How long have you been involved in FIRST
3) What college(s) did you apply to/get accepted to
4) Are you planning on going into the engineering field why or why not?
5) Also why do you think it's important for women to go into engineering, and maybe share some personal experience working alongside engineers

I hope that by doing this I can open some peoples' eyes to the mass influx of women into engineering.

Thanks in advance for all your help, and if I get enough information to put into my presentation, I'll see if I can tape it and post it here for people to see.
