Committees

The 澳门100%最准一肖一码 Women鈥檚 Council is comprised of three committees designed to support women in three key areas:  (1) Professional Development, (2) Educational Outreach, and (3) Welfare.

Professional Development Committee

The goal of the Professional Development Committee is to provide female faculty knowledge, tools, and networking opportunities to assist in career development at 澳门100%最准一肖一码 and beyond.  Our efforts have included hosting regular lunch-and-learn meetings including a Jeopardy-Style event: 鈥淲hat is Advancing Your Academic Career?鈥 and Speed Mentoring.   We also host a reception each year to welcome new female faculty to the 澳门100%最准一肖一码 Family.

Education Outreach Committee

The goal of the educational outreach committee is to engage female students through mentorship, role-modeling and preparation for STEM Careers.  Our efforts include outreach to both 澳门100%最准一肖一码 students as well as local K-12 schools. 

We host Girls in STEM events each semester, including mentoring opportunities with local industry professionals.  We also offer the Girls in Science, Engineering and Math (GEMS) Summer Camp, which has been partially funded by Collins Aerospace, and the 鈥淕EMS and GE鈥 camp which has been fully funded by GE Melbourne. 

We also collaborate with the FIT Science Bus Team, which has a refurbished recreational vehicle filled with microscopes, computers, water quality instrumentation, a meteorological station and other equipment.   The Science Bus visits Girls STEM Clubs throughout Brevard County to disseminate information to the community about important Indian River Lagoon topics. 

Our faculty are also actively involved in the Engineering Senior Design Showcase to support and study female students in these endeavors.  We also have a Girls in STEM living-learning community at 澳门100%最准一肖一码, in which female students live, work and play with other females pursing studies in STEM fields.

Welfare Committee
