The ABC Wildlife, believes diversity is critical in every scientific field from biology to chemical engineering for which they are giving Scholarships under their Women in STEM Academic Scholarship Program.
While women represent 48 percent of the American workforce, they make up only 13 percent of engineering professionals and a mere 7.2 percent in the field of mechanical engineering. Overall, women are critically underrepresented in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
They want to pave the way for other women pursuing their dreams in the scientific world, which is why ABC Wildlife offers a scholarship designed to increase the number of women studying and influencing the future of science, including technology, engineering and math.
