Celebrating Girls & Women in STEAM Week #GirlsAndSTEAM 💡

Their curiosity and courage inspire classrooms across B.C. We will continue to empower them as they open doors, create boldly and lead as trailblazers. Our future shines brighter with every girl in #STEAM🔭

Sharing some more pics from the #SFU Physics Dept booth at the #GirlsAndSTEAM event at Science World in Vancouver. All of our presenters were women in physics from a first-year student to faculty. 🎢👩‍🔬🧪⚛️

We took the #SFU superconducting train to Science World in Vancouver for their annual #GirlsAndSTEAM event this past weekend and had a blast. All of our volunteers were women. 😀 🎢 🧪 👩‍🔬 ⚛️ #SciComm
