FEMALE TERTIARY STEM STUDENTS PATHWAY
Be a part of our award winning program
Grad Girls is a 1 year pathway program run by Vic ICT for Women every year. Female STEM University and TAFE students will discover and understand the pathways available when taking the first step in their career.
It allows them to connect with fellow STEM students from different universities, and career professionals. One of the most important things for Vic ICT for Women is that our Grad Girls feel they understand how to transition their studies to real life practical careers. We arm them with the right tools to start their exciting career in technology and digital.
How does it work?
We have a wonderful network of volunteers and sponsors who support the program to make it possible. Our partners understand that it is important to support women in STEM as they finish their studies. Not only to help them find the right roles in their organisations, but to reduce the gender diversity gap. Our partners provide insight into how their companies run, some of the challenges they will face and of course – the great benefits with working in technology.
