About the Outreach

As part of IEEE WIE Week 2026, the STEM Outreach was organised to broaden students' understanding of STEM and introduce them to the various opportunities available in engineering and technology.

Key Highlights

  • Introduction to STEM and different branches of engineering.
  • Team members shared their personal experiences and career journeys in engineering in a simple and relatable way.
  • Interactive question and answer sessions encouraged students to participate and engage.
  • Students received prizes for asking questions, creating an energetic and engaging atmosphere.
  • HydroSmarts, an automated water pumping system, was demonstrated to show how engineering can be applied to solve real world problems.

Impact & Takeaways

The outreach broadened the students’ perspectives on STEM careers. While many were initially more familiar with fields such as medicine and nursing, the session introduced them to a wider range of possibilities.

By the end of the programme, some students expressed interest in pursuing Civil Engineering and Computer Engineering, highlighting the impact of exposing young minds to different STEM pathways.

Closing & Continued Engagement

The programme concluded with appreciation from the school staff and an expression of interest in future collaboration. Books and souvenirs were shared with the students, followed by photographs with the students, teachers, principal and outreach team. The outreach served as an opportunity to inspire curiosity, encourage exploration and show young girls that they can play a role in shaping the future of STEM.
