Zoom-A-WISE-Woman Program

Are you a teacher, school faculty member, or organization that is interested in having real scientists and engineers speak with your students about the work they do? We would LOVE to connect you with our WISE members through the "Zoom a WISE Woman" program! Please contact our team through the form below and let us know if there is a particular topic/area you are working on with your kids.

What teachers are saying

“The speakers were enthusiastic, very prepared, and offered a wealth of information. We especially enjoyed speakers that included facility tours, demonstration videos, and interactive portions in their presentations. Several sessions included interdisciplinary connections that supported our curriculum. We were thrilled to have the opportunity to connect our learners with so many experts.”

Bright by Text

WISE has partnered with Bright by Text, a non-profit organization that sends informational text messages to families of children ages 8 and younger. WISE volunteers will work with the WISE Outreach team to create short (1-2 minute) videos on the STEM topic of your choice, connecting the topic with real-world applications for families and kids. Contact our team through the form above if you are interested in this exciting opportunity!
