Becoming FiERCE

A High School Professional Development Workshop

Females in Engineering Reaching Career Empowerment

Thanks for coming to Becoming FiERCE!

All Becoming FiERCE participants are invited and encouraged to attend the FiERCE Forum on Saturday, February 12th to put their new skills into practice.

The Becoming FiERCE program that took place on Saturday, February 4th was aimed to help high school students interested in STEM improve their resume, elevator pitch and networking skills. During the program, students learned how to make their resume and elevator pitches stand out by participating in various activities and receiving a resume & elevator pitch template. They also learned the importance of networking and how to develop their network early in their career! Lastly, students had the opportunity to engage in panel discussions with student engineers to learn about their professional development journeys and college experiences.
