Become a Mentor!
Nordic Women in STEM is dedicated to helping out those looking to join STEM and the ones pursuing STEM fields. In an effort to increase females representation in STEM, we run 2 mentorship programs; 1) for female high school girls who are interested in studying STEM, 2) for female STEM university students. We try to match these students to mentors, so they can receive the best guidance, career advice, and be told all about how rewarding it is to be a woman in STEM.
