Women Working on Mars: Get Involved in Robotics!

DateWednesday, February 16, 2005 at 11:54AM

In honor of "Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day", February 24, 2005, the
Mars Public Engagement program and NASA's Robotics Education Project are
hosting an interactive webcast for young women interested in robotics and
engineering.

Ever wonder what it's like to work in robotics? Or how young people can get
involved at an early age? Just tune in for the "Get Involved in Robotics!"
webcast to learn more!

 

Students will see and hear from a diverse group of girls and women involved
in science and engineering at four different stages from elementary school
to full-time employment as an engineer. The 40-minute production will
highlight an inside look at how you can get
involved at robotics at any age. A live audience and e-mail link will
provide many questions for the panelists - you can even email in your own
questions and have them answered live during the show.

Following the shows, log on to the LIVE WEB CHAT and ask your questions
directly of women roboticists working at NASA! Webcast panelists will
include a professional engineer, an engineering student in college, a
high school student interested in engineering, and our youngest, an
elementary student just learning about the world of engineering and
Mars.
