The UCSD San Diego Supercomputer Center has partnered with two undergraduate campus organizations, the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) and Women in Computing (WIC), to provide a unique mentoring experience for students in grade 10.
The program's mission is to engage young women in the fields of computer science and engineering through workshops, campus and community events, corporate visits and undergraduate mentor matches. By providing a first-hand look into these two areas of interest and highlighting a variety of career opportunities in an encouraging and supportive environment, it is our hope that these young women continue on to pursue careers in STEM fields.
Students joining the program each year have the opportunity to learn and experience a variety of computer science and engineering focused workshops, events and tours and will have the opportunity to stay involved with ABLE through their high school graduation. The program is open to 10th grade students only at this time. For more information, please visit http://education.sdsc.edu/studenttech/?page_id=678.
