2018 STEMExplore Field Trip to UTC Pratt & Whitney

2018 STEMExplore Field Trip to UTC Pratt & Whitney

In 2018, STEMExplore connected 7,000+ girls in after-school programs to professional women in environmental STEM careers through a series of live, interactive events. Participating girls from our afterschool partner site, YWCA Hartford Region, were able to meet STEM Mentor and UTC engineer Ciara Poolman as well as tour the facilities at Pratt & Whitney in Farmington, CT. We are seeking community-based, afterschool program providers with a core constituency of underrepresented youth, primarily females, ages 13-18. Ideally, STEMExplore Afterschool Partner Sites are located in the following geographic areas of interest: Hartford, Connecticut; Cedar Rapids, Iowa; West Palm, Florida; Charlotte, North Carolina; New York, New York; southern California; and Ponce, Puerto Rico. If your organization is interested, please contact us! “For young women interested in becoming engineers and scientists, the reality is they won’t see as many women – especially women of color – in those roles as men,” said engineer Ciara Poolman. “It’s important for girls to see professionals who look like them to know that they, too, could one day have a career in STEM.” UTC is founding sponsor of STEMExplore – a collaboration with EarthEcho International – that is designed to make STEM careers exciting and accessible through a variety of virtual experiences.
