It’s Women in STEM Week — a time to celebrate the remarkable achievements of women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics! Our government is proud to recognize the third week of October each year as Women in STEM (WinSTEM) Week, highlighting the talent, innovation, and leadership of women shaping Alberta’s future. Through the Women in STEM Scholarship, we’re breaking barriers and empowering women to pursue education and careers in fields where they’ve been historically underrepresented. When women are empowered to follow their passions, we fuel innovation, strengthen our economy, and build a brighter Alberta for all. This week — and every week — let’s celebrate the women leading the way in STEM and inspire the next generation of innovators. #WomenInSTEM #WinSTEMWeek buff.ly/UQAdKy2
