The Fergus Falls AAUW chapter will host the next AAUW Tech Savvy Conference (AKA STEAM Girls Saturday) on Saturday, April 14, 2018 from 9:30 am to 11:30 am at the DNR Building in Fergus Falls.
AAUW Tech Savvy is a daylong science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) career conference designed to attract girls in sixth through ninth grades to these fields. AAUW Tech Savvy also includes an important parent program that encourages families to reinforce girls’ interest in future education and careers in STEM. AAUW branches have taken the lead in organizing and holding these highly successful, one-day STEM conference for girls nationwide; find a conference site below or contact your local branch if you’d like to organize an event in your community.
AAUW Tech Savvy was founded in 2006 by the AAUW Buffalo (NY) Branch under the leadership of former branch president Tamara Brown. This annual event has become a huge success, serving upwards of 700 girls and 200 parents each spring at the University of Buffalo in New York. Today more than 15 AAUW branches organize and hold AAUW Tech Savvy conferences throughout the country.
