Western Washington University to Host Girls in Engineering, Math and Science (GEMS) Fair on May 30

Western Washington University Youth Programs invite families to join in on a variety of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) activities at their inaugural Girls in Engineering, Math and Science (GEMS) Fair from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, May 30, in the Academic West building on Western’s campus.

The event, which is free and open to the public, is a great opportunity to learn about careers in STEM while supporting young female learners participating in Western’s Youth Programs this summer.
