TECHGIRLS PROGRAM
The deadline for applications is Wednesday February 11, 2015.
Program Description:
The U.S. Embassy in Sana’a is pleased to announce the Techgirls Program. TechGirls is an international exchange program designed to empower young girls from the Middle East and North Africa to pursue careers in science and technology.
The program provides approximately 27 teenage girls, ages 15-17, from select countries in the Middle East and North Africa the opportunity to travel to the United States in summer 2015 for a month-long U.S.-based exchange focused on promoting high-level study of technology. Program activities will include hands-on classes, labs, individual or team-based project design and development, mentoring experiences, job shadowing, site visits to high tech companies, and opportunities for interaction with American peers.
TechGirls return home with the knowledge, skills, new ideas and enthusiasm to make a positive impact on their schools and communities through achievable action projects using technology. TechGirls will work on action plans in the United States and refine their plans upon return home.
The goals of the TechGirls program are to:
1) Provide a program of academic study of applied technology for girls who already have a demonstrated aptitude and strong interest in the subject;
2) Empower girls to pursue higher education and careers in technology;
3) Link peers who share interests and abilities;
4) Develop the leadership skills of the participants;
5) Promote mutual understanding among the peoples of the United States and the countries and territories of the Middle East and North Africa.
