Monash University promotes gender equality in STEM

Monash University is making impactful contributions to gender equality in STEMM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Medicine):

The Monash Virtual School, supported by the Invergowrie Foundation, is addressing educational inequity by expanding STEMM opportunities for girls and young women in Victoria, with programs like a primary school STEMM co-design initiative, a Year 11 STEMM Events Series, and a Year 12 VCE Revision Program.
In celebration of International Women's Day 2024, Monash hosted a panel featuring women alumni from STEMM disciplines to discuss strategies for increasing women's inclusion in engineering, highlighting the Monash Engineering Women in Engineering Mentoring program.
Monash University received its third SAGE Cygnet Award for improving gender equity in STEMM careers, doubling the number of women Professors and increasing women Associate Professors by 50% since 2018, as part of its commitment to the Athena SWAN program.
